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 · May 30, 2024

The north leg carries the load — 6,646 southbound vehicles, or 33% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 3,893. Most cyclists arrived from the south (126 of 285). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,742 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,846 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.4% 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.
