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 · Nov 8, 2025 · weekend

The west leg carries the load — 7,361 eastbound vehicles, or 46% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 862. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,546 vehicles in the hour from 2:15 p.m., 52% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (1,018). Trucks and buses were 5.4% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

Peak hours: 1,018 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,546 from 2:15 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
