Recommendation Implementation Table Table 7 3 below summarizes the full list of corridor and i ntersection recommendations to reduce crashes for all modes and enhance the safety along the NW 26 th Street corridor. Each recommendation has an estimated applicable CMF and timeframe that reflects whether the recommendation is an ideal Short - (1 - 3 years), Mid - (3 -5 years), or Long- (5+ years) term project, based on feasibility, crash reduction benefit and cost.
