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 · Nov 1, 2007

The south leg carries the load — 544 northbound vehicles, or 37% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 274. Most cyclists arrived from the north (66 of 143). Morning rush is the busier period: 318 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:15 a.m., compared with 233 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 0.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 19 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2007, 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.
