Traffic Counts for AWR Back Path

We counted AWR traffic in late October of 2016. We knew one of the businesses would be diverting a large amount of traffic to Commerce Drive. In Spring of 2017 they closed their Central Avenue entrance for construction.

  • Morning and afternoon traffic peaked at only 23 cars in the busiest 5 minute interval.  There is ample capacity for additional traffic
  • Most elementary school traffic is between 8:00 and 8:40, with the peak between 8:10 and 8:30.
