Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets, and the red-light camera

Traffic volume14-hour count · Jul 3, 2024

The south leg carries the load — 9,350 northbound vehicles, or 41% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 2,323. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,357 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 72% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (1,367). Heavy vehicles made up 3.0% 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.
