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 29, 2018

The north leg carries the load — 664 southbound vehicles, or 46% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 2. Morning rush is the busier period: 322 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:00 a.m., compared with 242 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 9 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2018, 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.
