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 · Nov 2, 2024 · weekend
The north leg carries the load — 8,046 southbound vehicles, or 44% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 1,380. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,726 vehicles in the hour from 3:00 p.m., 28% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (1,346). Heavy vehicles made up 0.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 1,346 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,726 from 3:00 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m
