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 · Feb 26, 2015

The west leg carries the load — 6,654 eastbound vehicles, or 53% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 67. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,903 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 2,005 from 4:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 12 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2015, 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.
