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 · Jun 12, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The north leg carries the load — 930 southbound vehicles, or 89% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 31. Most cyclists arrived from the north (36 of 57). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 127 vehicles in the hour from 3:00 p.m., 37% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (93). Heavy vehicles made up 1.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
