INTRODUCTION

The 2013 New York City Screenline Traffic Flow report is an annual publication prepared by the New York City Department of Transportation (NYCDOT), and funded by the Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) under the Planning Program of the Moving Ahead for Progress (MAP-21) Act.

The report presents vehicular volumes and historical comparisons across the Bronx–Westchester, Queens–Nassau, Manhattan–New Jersey, Staten Island–New Jersey, and Brooklyn–Queens screenlines.

The average hourly volumes by direction for 2013 are presented in tabular form and in histograms for each monitored roadway facility. Historical comparisons are based on screenline data collected in 1963, 1973, 1982, 1986, and 1993-2012. The statistical analysis presented in the report was performed by staff of NYCDOT during the 2013–2014 and 2014–2015 program years.

Each of the 47 screenline monitoring locations has been classified under a highway functional classification system. Functional classification is the method by which streets and highways are grouped into classes, or systems, according to the character of service each roadway provides.

The five functional classifications are defined as follows:

1. Interstate - connects population centers across state lines.

2. Principal Arterial - serves major centers of activity of an urban area and carries a high proportion of the total urban area travel on a minimum of mileage.

3. Minor Arterial - interconnects with and augments urban principal arterials; provides service for trips of moderate length at a somewhat lower level of travel mobility than principal arterials; distributes travel to geographic areas smaller than those identified with the higher system.

4. Collector Street - provides both land access service and traffic circulation within residential neighborhoods, and commercial and industrial areas. Differs from the arterial systems in that facilities on the collector system may penetrate residential neighborhoods, distributing trips from arterials to the ultimate destination. Conversely, collector streets also collect traffic from local streets in residential neighborhoods and channel it into the arterial system.

5. Local Street - comprises all facilities not on one of the higher systems. Serves primarily to provide direct access to abutting land and access to the higher order systems. Offers the lowest level of mobility and usually contains no bus or truck route.

Note: NYCDOT uses the averages of vehicular volumes from selected representative weekdays. Publications from other sources may be based on alternative computation methodologies for some facilities, notably the tolled bridges and tunnels, possibly yielding different results for those facilities.

Manhattan ‐ New Jersey daily volume increased 15.7%, to 547,449 from 473,069.

2003 ‐ 2013

During the most recent ten‐year period, from 2003 to 2013, monitored traffic at the New York City boundaries decreased by 4.0%, to 2,218,422 daily vehicles in 2013 from 2,310,174 in 2003.

Bronx – Westchester traffic decreased 1.5%, to 610,332 daily vehicles in 2013 from 619,449 in 2003.

36

Manhattan ‐ New Jersey traffic decreased 12.4%, to 479,819 daily vehicles from

547,449.

Staten Island ‐ New Jersey traffic decreased 9.3%, to 158,267 daily vehicles from 174,582.

Queens ‐ Nassau traffic increased 0.1%, to 970,004 daily vehicles in 2013 from 968,694 in 2003.

1963 ‐ 2013

From 1963 to 2013, daily two–way traffic at the 29 City border locations monitored throughout the period nearly doubled, to 2,173,360 in 2013 from 1,109,201 in 1963.

Staten Island – New Jersey traffic skyrocketed by 478%, to 158,267 daily vehicles in 2013 from 27,398 in 1963, largely as a result of the opening of the Verrazano–Narrows Bridge in 1964.

Manhattan – New Jersey traffic increased 81%, to 479,819 daily vehicles in 2013 from 265,603 in 1963, fostered in part by the opening of the George Washington Bridge's lower level in 1962 and the Alexander Hamilton Bridge/Trans‐Manhattan Expressway route in 1963 which facilitated travel between Bronx/Queens/Long Island/New England and New Jersey via upper Manhattan. From 1962 to 1966, George Washington Bridge traffic increased 50.6% to 167,304 daily vehicles from 111,090.

During the 50‐year period from 1963 to 2013, continuously monitored daily traffic increased 123% between The Bronx and Westchester (to 601,198 from 269,650), and 71% between Queens and Nassau (to 934,076 from 546,550).

NEW YORK ‐ NEW JERSEY SCREENLINE

Manhattan – New Jersey

In 1963, daily traffic between Manhattan and New Jersey averaged 265,603 vehicles.

The George Washington Bridge was the most heavily‐traveled crossing, serving 127,452 vehicles per day (48.0% of the total).

The Holland Tunnel accommodated 58,814 daily vehicles.

The Lincoln Tunnel was used by 79,337 daily vehicles.

Between 1963 and 1973, Manhattan ‐ New Jersey traffic volume grew to 397,203 vehicles per day, an increase of 49.5% (131,600 additional daily vehicles).

George Washington Bridge traffic increased 82.6% (to 232,686 daily vehicles in 1973 from 127,452 in 1963), partly as a result of the opening of the lower level, and the Alexander Hamilton Bridge/Trans‐Manhattan Expressway route, which facilitated travel between Bronx/Queens/Long Island/New England and New Jersey via upper Manhattan.

That increase of 105,234 daily vehicles using the George Washington Bridge accounted for 80.0% of the total 1963‐1973 growth in Manhattan ‐ New Jersey screenline traffic.

Lincoln Tunnel traffic increased 25.8%, to 99,786 daily vehicles from 79,337.

Holland Tunnel traffic increased 10.1%, to 64,731 vehicles per day from 58,814.

George Washington Bridge traffic increased 7.1%, to 249,294 daily vehicles in 1982 from 232,686 in 1973.

By 1973, motor travel between Staten Island and New Jersey had nearly tripled, to 81,034 daily vehicles in 1973 from 27,398 in 1963.

Growth was spurred by the opening of the Verrazano‐Narrows Bridge between Brooklyn and Staten Island in 1964.

Growth was concentrated at the Outerbridge Crossing, where volume nearly quadrupled, to 44,740 daily vehicles in 1982 from 11,726 in 1973. Completion of the West Shore Expressway provided a continuous limited access route between the Outerbridge Crossing and the Verrazano‐Narrows Bridge.


On the other hand, volume on the Goethals Bridge decreased 15.0%, to 48,310 daily vehicles from 56,850.


Renewed growth between 1982 and 1986 boosted daily Staten Island ‐ New Jersey traffic volume to 138,436 daily vehicles, an increase of 29.8% in just four years.

Growth was fairly evenly distributed among the three facilities.

Goethals Bridge traffic increased 33.8%, to 64,634 daily vehicles in 1986 from 48,310 in 1982.
