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 · Oct 15, 2007

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The west leg carries the load — 1,466 eastbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 208. Most cyclists arrived from the west (37 of 74). Morning rush is the busier period: 619 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:15 a.m., compared with 360 from 4:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles were a negligible share of traffic (0.4%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 19 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2007, 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.
