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 · Jul 22, 2025

The north leg carries the load — 1,206 southbound vehicles, or 40% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 389. Most cyclists arrived from the north (140 of 293). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 275 vehicles in the hour from 5:30 p.m., 18% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (233). Heavy vehicles made up 1.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 15 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
