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 · Apr 21, 2011

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The north leg carries the load — 10,458 southbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 690. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,307 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 3,476 from 4:45 p.m. Trucks and buses were 7.3% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 16 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.
