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 16, 2009

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The west leg carries the load — 658 eastbound vehicles, or 44% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 400. Morning rush is the busier period: 271 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:00 a.m., compared with 209 from 4:15 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 17 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2009, 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.
