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 1, 2025

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 12,288 northbound vehicles, or 51% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 1,298. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,361 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,284 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 19 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
