Abstract
⺠Maintaining a delicate balance between different land uses in a traffic analysis zone (TAZ) or area helps improve safety and maximize derived benefits. ⺠Mixed use development, urban residential, multi-family residential, business and office district areas are strongly associated with an increase in crashes in a TAZ. ⺠TAZs with single-family residential area tend to have a neutralizing effect on crashes. ⺠Institutional, industrial and research district areas are strongly associated with injury crashes.
