The intersection of state Routes 43 and 14 in Streetsboro is the most dangerous crossing in all of Portage and Summit counties, according to the latest annual report from the Akron Metropolitan Area Transportation Study (AMATS).

These reports help local municipalities identify dangerous roadways and intersections and apply for safety funding through the Ohio Department of Transportation to fix them, said David Pulay, an AMATS transportation engineer. This most recent report covered 2017–2019.
