Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Sep 19, 2023

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The east leg carries the load — 535 westbound vehicles, or 55% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 67. Morning rush is the busier period: 124 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:00 a.m., compared with 105 from 3:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

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.
