This paper discusses problems with the traffic flow in the area around the WPI campus, specifically for the intersections on Park Avenue. Various studies were performed to determine traffic volume and accident frequency and were then analyzed to determine what could be done to benefit the drivers. Problems were found with the intersections, some serious and some just minor. Recommendations were made to the City of Worcester for solutions to these problems, and we hope they will be implemented.
