Stats & Facts
Our transportation choices impact our employment, our finances, the health of our neighborhood and our personal health. uGO is an initiative to help you make good decisions about how you get from A to B by prioritizing health, safety, access and choice.
Safety
A pedestrian struck by a vehicle going 20 MPH has a 9 in 10 chance of avoiding serious injury or death.
A pedestrian struck by a vehicle going 40 MPH has a 2 in 10 chance of avoiding serious injury or death.
Between 2010 and 2014, there were over 1,580 automobile crashes in University Circle. 80 of them involved bicyclists and pedestrians.
A person can reduce his or her chance of being in a crash by more than 90% by taking public transit as opposed to commuting by car.
Health
Every mile walked or biked instead of driven by car cuts out 0.4 kg of CO2.
Cycling 15 minutes to work, four days a week reduces the average American’s carbon footprint by about 5%.
Walking briskly for 20 minutes every day can add up to 7 years to your life.
The average person loses 13 lbs. in the first year of commuting by bike.
Access
American Community Survey estimates indicate that 25% of City of Cleveland households do not have a car.
The average annual cost of a bicycle is $308. That’s nearly 98% less than the year expenses of an average car, $13,646.
During rush hour, cyclists are up to 50% faster than the average car.

Respect the speed limit! As part of our traffic safety efforts, we partner with UCPD to install a radar speed sign at targeted locations in the Circle. The sign helps discourage speeding and allows us to collect valuable speed and traffic count data.

Clocks move back one hour this Sunday, which means people traveling in the early evening hours will experience darker conditions than before. Dark conditions are linked to increased crash risk, especially for pedestrians. Next week, as part of our Project Yield initiative, we will begin installing speed limit awareness signs at targeted locations in University Circle to encourage safe and alert driving.
