Traffic and safety

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

Traffic volume8-hour count · Mar 12, 1991

The north leg carries the load — 8,282 southbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 77. Morning rush is the busier period: 2,704 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:15 a.m., compared with 2,361 from 4:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 36 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 1991, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
