ANATOMY OF KEWAUNEE COUNTY: A TRAFFIC SAFETY SUMMARY There were 9 fatal crashes in Kewaunee County from 2012 to 2016. 1

THE PLACE Section Summary The principal route in the county is STH 29. Kewaunee County is among the bottom ten counties in the state for miles of roads, miles of state highways, and miles of local roads. It is among the top ten counties for number of registered vehicles per VMT. Urbanization Kewaunee County is a part of the Green Bay metropolitan area, and it is adjacent to the Manitowoc urban cluster. 27.67% of the county s population lives in urban areas, and 0.92% of the land area of the county is urban. 1 The eastern boundary of the county is the eastern boundary of the state, which is in the center of Lake Michigan. Road Network State Trunk Highway (STH) 57 is designated as a north-south highway, and it is an expressway that cuts across the northwest corner of the county along the bay of Green Bay through the town of Red River, carrying traffic between Green Bay to the southwest and Sturgeon Bay to the northeast. STH 29 is an east-west primary arterial that begins in Kewaunee and heads west toward Bellevue and Green Bay. STH 42 runs along the Lake Michigan shore traveling through Kewaunee and Algoma, carrying traffic between Two Rivers and Manitowoc to the south and Forestville and Sturgeon Bay to the north. STH 54 begins in Algoma and heads west, traveling through Casco and Luxemburg and then on to Green Bay. Miles of Roadway There are 828 miles of roadway in the county, including 62 (7.5%) miles of state roads, 219 (26.4%) miles of county roads, and 547 (66.1%) miles of local roads. 2 Vehicle Registrations and Vehicle Miles of Travel (VMT) In 2016, there were 8,219 autos, 1,994 cycles, 2,122 trailers, and 13,555 trucks registered in Kewaunee County. 3 VMT in 2016 was 239,948,080. 4 Traffic Volume As can be seen in Figure 1, traffic volumes in Kewaunee County are highest along near the city of Kewaunee and along Highways 42 and 29 and in the west-central portion of the county, near the Village of Luxembourg (on Highway 54). The maximum daily VMT in the county is reported at about 11,000. 1 United States Census Bureau. Percent urban and rural in 2010 by state and county.

THE POPULATION The population of Kewaunee County 21,000 individuals is distributed through 13 jurisdictions, with the cities of Algoma and Kewaunee being the largest among these. Nonetheless, there are no dominant population centers in the county, as it is characterized by many modestly-sized jurisdictions. The City of Kewaunee contains about 14% of the county s population.

The average age of the county is older than that of the state (43.8 vs. 39 years). Kewaunee County s population pyramid (Figure 5) is thus slightly more top-heavy than the state generally. 7 United States Census Bureau.

FIGURE 5 8 : POPULATION PYRAMIDS (KEWAUNEE COUNTY ABOVE AND STATE BELOW) Generally, jurisdictions in the county are experiencing either stagnant or declining populations, with only a few places growing modestly. (In Figure 6, the measure of absolute population change merely shows the raw population changes between 2010 and 2016, while the measure of relative population change weights such absolute changes by the base population figures of 2010). 9 8 United States Census Bureau.

HEALTH INFRASTRUCTURE Injury-to-Death Ratios Injury-to-death ratios are computed by dividing the total number of crash injuries by the crash fatalities. Higher rates are positive in that fatalities comprise a smaller percentage of crash victims. In general, higher rates are found in the state s urbanized southeastern and south-central regions and the Fox Valley, where crashes are more likely to occur in more developed areas (and thus at slower speeds). In rural areas, the converse is true (highways and county roads predominate, with crashes occurring at higher average speeds). Generally, rural areas also suffer from a relative lack of proximate hospitals and emergency response services, which means that some crashes which would be survivable in urban areas correspond to fatalities in more rural areas. Between 2012 and 2017, as can be seen in Figure 12, Kewaunee County reported lower injury-to-death ratio than the state generally (44.9 vs. 73.1). Emergency Services As can be seen in Figure 13, Kewaunee County doesn t contain any trauma centers within its boundaries. The closest level II and III trauma centers are west, across the county border, in the Green Bay Area. The closest level I trauma center is in Milwaukee. 15 Kewaunee County maintains 7 different emergency providers (Figure 14). These companies employ 152 emergency personnel. Consequently, the county is the site of 7.4 emergency response personnel per 1,000 residents. This is higher than the state figure of 4.02 emergency response personnel per 1,000 residents. 15 The trauma capacities of hospitals are rated on a I-IV scale, with some remaining unrated; Level I hospitals have the greatest capacity. In the image, brighter colors show hot spots, where crash numbers are (locally) concentrated. 13

Crashes Persons Crashes Persons Crashes Persons Crashes Persons Crashes Persons Crashes Persons THE CRASHES The State of Wisconsin, in a months-long process, solicited input from a diverse variety of stakeholders to create the most recent version of our Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP), a document that guides investment and safety decisions for three years. The plan has ten different issue areas. General crashrelated statistics for Kewaunee County are listed below, and then facts and figures are organized to correspond with these ten issue areas.

THE GRANTS The Bureau of Transportation Safety targets counties throughout the state based on crash frequency and severity, considering their size, location, and contributing behavioral factors as indicated on crash forms received from local law enforcement agencies. Overtime enforcement grants are offered to the law enforcement agencies of a county to form a high-visibility enforcement task force that will coordinate efforts with each other and locals to change the driving behavior in their county. If a county makes the targeting list for an enforcement grant to address a behavioral highway safety issue, all law enforcement agencies within the county are eligible to participate on a task force to address the problem. National priority issue areas include impaired driving, seat belt use, speeding, and distracted driving. 2016 Grant Participation Kewaunee County Law Enforcement Agencies Impaired Driving Occupant Speed no participation 2017 Task Force Participation and 2018 Task Force Eligibility Impaired Driving Occupant Speed Kewaunee County Law Enforcement Agencies Agency Mobilizations 2016-2017 Kewaunee County Law Enforcement Agencies not eligible not eligible not eligible FY2016 Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over- Winter Holidays 2016 Click It or Ticket 2016 Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over Labor Day FY2017 Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over- Winter Holidays no participation 2017 Click It or Ticket 2017 Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over Labor Day The Wisconsin State Patrol participates in all three mobilizations each year.
