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 · Jan 29, 2026

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The west leg carries the load — 8,295 eastbound vehicles, or 55% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 3. Most cyclists arrived from the east (66 of 127). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,268 vehicles in the hour from 5:15 p.m., 10% above the morning peak from 9:00 a.m. (1,157). Trucks and buses were 9.1% 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 recent, so it reflects current conditions.
