Only 24 percent of jobs in the region are accessible by transit in 90 minutes or less by a typical resident — and that number drops to 12 percent in the suburbs.

Please call or write IDOT – doorings are crashes

Mar 22, 2011 | by Active Trans

Fox News Chicago interviewed Active Trans this morning about IDOT's policy of not tracking dooring crashes. Following Monday’s Chicago Tribune article and our blog we are again asking for your support in pushing IDOT to change their policy on dooring crashes.

Please contact IDOT and tell them to count doorings as crashes. Call the Divison of Traffic Safety (217) 782-4972 or write a letter to Division of Traffic Safety, Illinois Department of Transportation, 2300 S. Dirksen Parkway, Springfield, IL 62764.

Email also works for contacting IDOT: http://www.dot.state.il.us/Email/Email.asp?from=1

Thank you.
