Hour by hour, the 14-hour count works out to close to 1,300 vehicles, about the citywide median. There is roughly one pedestrian for every 1.2 vehicles, a higher share of people on foot than the typical counted intersection (one per 13). Cyclists were 24.9% of vehicle volume, about 32× the typical share. That comes with about 15 reported collisions a year, 2016–2025 — 8.2 per 10,000 counted vehicles, 1.66× the median rate for counted intersections. Collisions edged down 10%, from 79 in 2016–2020 to 71 in 2021–2025. About one in 75 of those collisions involved a death or serious injury.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Oct 9, 2025

The west leg carries the load — 6,439 eastbound vehicles, or 35% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 2,751. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,590 vehicles in the hour from 4:15 p.m., 10% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,444). Heavy vehicles made up 3.1% 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.

How fast traffic moves here

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.
