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 · Mar 24, 2026
The east leg carries the load — 14,301 westbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 1,295. Most cyclists arrived from the east (31 of 65). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,708 vehicles in the hour from 5:30 p.m., 14% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (2,367). Heavy vehicles made up 4.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.
Peak hours: 2,367 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,708 from 5:30 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m
2016 was the peak year (35 collisions), and 2025 closed with 7. 21% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 39 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 30% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%.
