The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Sep 15, 2026
The north leg carries the load — 13,309 southbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 785. Most cyclists arrived from the south (55 of 122). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,455 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,452 from 4:30 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 recent, so it reflects current conditions.
Peak hours: 2,455 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,452 from 4:30 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
