West Broadway Ave is the commercial heart of North Minneapolis and is home to several prominent community organizations, and public space for community gathering. The Northside business district boasts a diverse, young, and growing population, and will only grow further with new housing developments on the horizon.
More than half of pedestrian crashes on West Broadway occur within 100 feet of a bus stop. High frequency transit route 5 crosses West Broadway Ave at Penn Ave N, Fremont Ave N and Emerson Ave N. The intersection of Lyndale Ave and West Broadway has a frequent local bus route and the most pedestrian crashes.
