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 · Aug 11, 2022

The north leg carries the load — 346 southbound vehicles, or 44% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 16. Most cyclists arrived from the north (119 of 213). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 118 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 16% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (102). Heavy vehicles made up 4.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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.
