The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume14-hour count · Oct 15, 2025

The west leg carries the load — 6,216 eastbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 785. Most cyclists arrived from the east (865 of 1,950). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,016 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,091 from 4:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.4% 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.
