Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Jan 13, 2026

The east leg carries the load — 13,514 westbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 919. Most cyclists arrived from the east (32 of 64). Morning rush is the busier period: 2,280 vehicles in the peak hour from 7:30 a.m., compared with 2,105 from 5:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt; one collision involved vehicle occupants only. One of the two happened in darkness. The most recent was on Sep 9, 2019. Going back to 2006, the total is 3. The police all-collisions file records 1 fatal collision here in 2016–2025; the KSI file, which is compiled separately and geocoded to the nearest leg, places it just outside the 65 m radius.
