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 · Jul 9, 2020

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The north leg carries the load — 119 southbound vehicles, or 46% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 56. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 54 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 218% above the morning peak from 7:30 a.m. (17). Heavy vehicles made up 1.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 6 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2020, 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.
