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 · Nov 26, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The north leg carries the load — 9,837 southbound vehicles, or 56% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 310. Most cyclists arrived from the south (48 of 92). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,575 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,612 from 5:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
