Traffic and safety

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

Traffic volume8-hour count · Dec 19, 2019

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 9,373 northbound vehicles, or 55% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 532. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,976 vehicles in the hour from 4:15 p.m., 38% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (2,164). Trucks and buses were 14.7% 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 is 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2019, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
