Thanks for taking the time to post. I am actually working on a research project that aims at reducing cyclist accidents in the Austin area.  For this I need to pick a project site for implementation.  I am looking for a signalized intersection (one that already has traffic lights) which is also busy with cycle traffic. I am guessing more accidents can happen here because of automobiles colliding with left turning cyclists (or even a cyclist turning right or going straight) because of heavy traffic and low visibility.  Busy traffic can also be determined by peak times.  If you give me a few names of cross streets that are potential candidates I can look up crash data at these locations.
