Traffic volume14-hour count · May 6, 2025

The north leg carries the load — 13,371 southbound vehicles, or 30% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 9,609. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,794 vehicles in the hour from 7:30 a.m. and 3,874 from 4:30 p.m. Trucks and buses were 5.5% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 18 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
