Traffic volume8-hour count · Sep 15, 2021

Traffic is spread evenly across the approaches, from 2,560 vehicles entering from the north to 2,881 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the north (139 of 263). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 733 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 777 from 4:00 p.m. Trucks and buses were 6.5% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, 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.

Peak hours: 733 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 777 from 4:00 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
