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 · Sep 15, 2011

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The east leg carries the load — 2,921 westbound vehicles, or 53% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 408. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,027 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 953 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 15 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2011, 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.
