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 16, 2022

The west leg carries the load — 2,482 eastbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 117. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 835 vehicles in the hour from 4:00 p.m., 8% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (773). Heavy vehicles made up 2.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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.

Peak hours: 773 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 835 from 4:00 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
