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 8, 2006

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The east leg carries the load — 669 westbound vehicles, or 56% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 183. Morning rush is the busier period: 251 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:30 a.m., compared with 147 from 2:00 p.m. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 21 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2006, 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.
