The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 19, 2024
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 22,738 northbound vehicles, or 46% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 6,395. Most cyclists arrived from the north (37 of 82). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 4,619 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 4,285 from 2:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 4,619 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 4,285 from 2:45 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
