Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume14-hour count · Jun 4, 2025

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The south leg carries the load — 1,174 northbound vehicles, or 51% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 168. Most cyclists arrived from the south (177 of 348). Morning rush is the busier period: 353 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:15 a.m., compared with 248 from 3:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 17 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
