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 · Mar 30, 2016

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The east leg carries the load — 2,303 westbound vehicles, or 56% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 442. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 615 vehicles in the hour from 4:15 p.m., 9% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (566). Trucks and buses were 13.0% 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 11 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.
