Windsor police have updated the list of the worst intersections in the city for collisions.
The new entries include:
- Central Avenue at the E.C. Row Expressway
- Dougall Avenue at E.C. Row
- The 7600 block of Tecumseh Road East
The locations have been added to the list of the 10 intersections in the city deemed the most dangerous, based on vehicle collision data collected by the Windsor Police Service in 2023.
These intersections were on the list last year, but have been bumped out of the Top 10:
- Tecumseh Road at Ouellette Avenue
- Provincial Road and Walker Road
- Dougall Avenue at West Grand Boulevard
Police say anyone travelling through the areas on the list are encouraged to pay attention to their driving habits, as they can expect to see an increased police presence at those locations throughout the year.
The Traffic Enforcement Unit is cracking down on moving violations, such as disobeying stop signs, failing to stop for red lights, and speeding.
Here is the Top 10 worst intersections for collisions based on 2023 vehicle collision data:
1 - E.C. Row at Howard Avenue
