Traffic Accident and Impaired Driving
Lowell, Massachusetts is a former mill town that serves as the county seat of Middlesex County. It is also the hometown of such notable people as actress Bette Davis, author Jack Kerouac, Tonight Show co-host Ed McMahon, and former Presidential Candidate Paul Tsongas. And while Lowell is no longer a mill town, it is still a bustling city with heavy traffic throughout the day. In fact, in 2009, Middlesex County was ranked as the most dangerous county in the state in terms of traffic accidents, resulting in 66 fatalities.

200 Most Dangerous Intersections
A more recent study by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MDOT) relied on data from 2013 to find the 200 most dangerous intersections in the state. Not surprisingly, Lowell came in fourth place, being home to 13 of these hazardous intersections. Another dubious distinction this study endows upon Lowell is that it has two intersections listed in the top 10 most dangerous intersections in the state – a distinction that only Brockton can also claim. Let’s take a look at Lowell’s contributions to Massachusetts’ top 10 potentially deadly intersections:
- Ranking number two on the list, with a 32 percent accident injury rate, the intersection of Bridge Street and Veterans of Foreign Wars Parkway. Out of 125 crashes, 40 resulted in injury.
- Number six on the list, with a 36 percent accident injury rate is the crossroads of Appleton Street and Central Street. Out of 88 crashes, 32 resulted in injury.
