Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Oct 12, 2023

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The north leg carries the load — 7,566 southbound vehicles, or 46% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 1,565. Most cyclists arrived from the north (114 of 118). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,462 vehicles in the hour from 6:45 p.m., 15% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,274). Heavy vehicles made up 3.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.
