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 · Nov 9, 2016

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The north leg carries the load — 6,431 southbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 627. Most cyclists arrived from the south (64 of 126). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,159 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,085 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 10 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2016, 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.
