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 · Apr 13, 2025 · weekend
The east leg carries the load — 5,635 westbound vehicles, or 39% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 1,146. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,687 vehicles in the hour from 2:00 p.m., 95% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (864). Heavy vehicles were a negligible share of traffic (0.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Sunday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 18 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 864 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,687 from 2:00 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
