Traffic and safety

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

Traffic volume14-hour count · Jun 11, 2024

The west leg carries the load — 13,358 eastbound vehicles, or 42% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 2,351. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,958 vehicles in the hour from 5:30 p.m., 13% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (2,615). Heavy vehicles made up 4.4% 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.
