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 · Mar 29, 2014 · weekend

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 15,902 northbound vehicles, or 46% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 5,725. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 5,176 vehicles in the hour from 2:00 p.m., 39% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (3,716). Heavy vehicles made up 2.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 13 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2014, 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.
