Forty of those injury collisions were alcohol related giving an decrease of 6.9% over the 43 in 2015. There was a 300% increase in alcohol related fatalities from 2015. Two of those fatalities occurred during night- time hours. Our largest increase from 2015 is motorcycle injuries from 1 in 2015, to 23 in 2016.

We did not have any Hit and Run fatalities but data revealed a slight increase of Hit and Run injury victims of 35 in 2015, to 36 in 2016. Data shows that we had one pedestrian killed in 2016 which is no change from previous year. Last year we had one pedestrian killed with no pedestrians killed in 2014. Pedestrian injuries increased from 29 in 2014 to 138 in 2015. Bicyclist injuries slightly increased from 20 in 2014 to 22 in 2105. The city of Redlands downtown and west end commercial districts are currently expanding ,with new businesses, restaurants and alcohol serving establishments. The Citrus Grove shopping center business district is again expanding this year with new shopping opportunities, a movie theater and restaurants to include surrounding establishments that serve alcohol. This is increasing pedestrian traffic and roadway users in and out of the city, Roadways in this these areas are continuing to be improved to relieve congestion and accommodate the high volume of travel by roadway users throughout the day and night.
