Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · May 26, 2026
The north leg carries the load — 17,485 southbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 158. Most cyclists arrived from the north (122 of 250). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,196 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 3,164 from 5:15 p.m. Trucks and buses were 7.4% 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 recent, so it reflects current conditions.
Peak hours: 3,196 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 3,164 from 5:15 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
