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 · Sep 5, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 9,625 northbound vehicles, or 47% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 1,409. Most cyclists arrived from the south (50 of 85). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,820 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,809 from 3:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,820 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,809 from 3:15 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
