Most Dangerous Chicago Intersections for Runners

Chicago-area running store Fleet Feet recently released a list of 12 most dangerous intersections in Chicago for runners. The store polled runners using Reddit and Twitter to compile the list.

Topping the list is Roosevelt and Union in University Village. In second place is Diversey and Lake Shore Drive in Lincoln Park. Also on the list is the infamous six-cornered intersection of Damen, North and Milwaukee in Wicker Park. Drivers are increasingly distracted while driving, making the roads dangerous for runners and pedestrians, particularly at intersections where it is more difficult to see and have proper visibility.

Fleet Feet’s full list of Most Dangerous Intersections in Chicago:

• Roosevelt and Union, University Village
• Diversey and Lake Shore, Lincoln Park
• Kedzie and Logan, Logan Square
