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 · Aug 30, 2022

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The west leg carries the load — 268 eastbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 43. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 111 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 98% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (56). Heavy vehicles made up 2.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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.
