Average Daily Traffic (ADT) 
To get more information on the estimated Average Daily Traffic (ADT) for roadway segments in San Carlos.   (5KB)
Note:  ADT was estimated based on PM peak hour turning movement counts at various intersections conducted in March, 2004.

In March 2006, Hexagon Transportation Consultants compiled a Draft Environmental Impact Report for the Palo Alto Medical Foundation San Carlos Center project.

Traffic conditions at the study intersections and on the study freeway segments were analyzed for the weekday AM and PM peak hours of traffic. The AM peak hour of traffic is generally between 7:00 and 9:00 AM, and the PM peak hour is typically between 4:00 and 6:00 PM. It is during these periods that the most congested traffic conditions occur on an average day.

Existing traffic volumes were obtained from recent (March 2004) turning movement counts at the following intersections:

• Harbor / Industrial Road
• El Camino Real / Harbor
• El Camino Real / Holly St
• Holly St / Old County Road
• Holly St / Industrial Road
• San Carlos Av / Alameda de las Pulgas
