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 · Jan 31, 2000

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The south leg carries the load — 5,397 northbound vehicles, or 53% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 591. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,799 vehicles in the hour from 4:15 p.m., 26% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,432). Heavy vehicles made up 4.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 27 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2000, 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.
