High-Risk Corridors: Barham Blvd and Hollywood Commuter Routes
Barham Blvd serves as a vital cut-through between Hollywood and the San Fernando Valley, carrying heavy traffic throughout the week, particularly on weekends when tourist and entertainment venue traffic increases. The road features sharp curves, limited visibility in certain areas, and frequent stop-and-go patterns, all of which contribute to a heightened risk of vehicle crashes.
According to data from the Los Angeles Department of Transportation, corridors like Barham Blvd are prone to injury collisions due to their mixed-use nature—serving both commuters and heavy pedestrian traffic from nearby attractions.
To reduce the risk of accidents, drivers on Barham Blvd are urged to exercise caution near curves, avoid distracted driving, and maintain safe following distances, especially during weekend and midday travel times when traffic volumes spike.
