Reconnect Rochester is pleased to host this Monroe County Crash Map to raise awareness and support local advocacy efforts around safe streets in our community.
In the U.S., pedestrian fatalities have skyrocketed, increasing by 75% since 2010. This map shows that in Monroe County 5,113 crashes from 2015-2024 involved bicyclists and pedestrians (2,518 resulted in injury or fatality).
On average, twelve people die on our local streets every year as a result of these crashes. In 2023 this number rose to 20 fatalities, while 11 people died while biking or walking in 2024. Compared to previous 10 year periods, there has been a 2-3% annual decrease in crashes involving bicyclists and pedestrians, but an 8-10% increase in the number of injuries and fatalities in the same period. We must do better.
