North Fresno Friant to Champlain Grid Corridor
At a glance: Graded 26 out of 100 (Tier 1: Calm Grid & Orientation) across 5.2 miles in Central Valley. Divided six-lane Central Valley boulevard network with flat San Joaquin river-terrace relief and wide signalized intersections.
Why this corridor sits in Tier 1
North Fresno’s mile-grid arterials near Woodward Park pair level San Joaquin Valley sightlines with high-capacity signalized junctions. While curvature and grade scores stay low, wide crossing distances and 45 to 50 mph arterial speeds raise the importance of yellow-phase judgment and protected left-turn clearance.
Key roadway traits
- Flat San Joaquin terrain
- Divided raised medians
- Long signal sightlines

Methodology & interpretation limits
Complexity Index combines horizontal curvature, sustained elevation grade, speed-transition demand, and 12-month historical reported crash concentration per corridor mile. Counts describe observational public records unadjusted for daily traffic volume and do not represent driving safety advice. Missing-coordinate collision records in surrounding cities are reported separately in live buffered queries and are never plotted at synthetic coordinates.
