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 23, 2025

The north leg carries the load — 3,212 southbound vehicles, or 51% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 48. Most cyclists arrived from the south (77 of 123). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 723 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 41% above the morning peak from 9:00 a.m. (511). Heavy vehicles made up 1.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 18 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
