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 · Jun 11, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The west leg carries the load — 12,481 eastbound vehicles, or 44% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 3,272. Most cyclists arrived from the east (101 of 121). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,498 vehicles in the hour from 5:15 p.m., 13% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (2,209). Trucks and buses were 5.2% 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 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
