Hillsborough County’s Most Dangerous Intersections
A list of Hillsborough County’s most dangerous intersections is out. The list is compiled from All for Transportation, which is based on the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office data.
All for Transportation was looking to get a 1% transportation tax referendum on the November ballot this year. A Hillsborough County circuit court judge rejected the tax hike saying, ”It misleads the public.”
Through the proposed 1% tax hike the group said they will “Build and widen roads. Fix roads and bridges. Expand public transit options. Fix potholes. Enhance bus services. Improve intersections. Make walking and biking safer.”
Four of Hillsborough County’s most dangerous intersections are located in Riverview. The data listed below is from June 2021 to September 2022.
