INTRODUCTION The 2010 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), and the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act – A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU). 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 2010 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 1993-2009. The statistical analysis presented in the report was performed by staff of NYCDOT during the 2010–2011 and 2011–2012 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.

NEW YORK CITY SCREENLINE In 1963, when the first comprehensive New York City border screenline data were collected, average daily two-way volume at the 29 locations studied was 1,109,200 (volumes on Van Cortlandt Park East in The Bronx, and Central Avenue and Seagirt Boulevard in Queens were not collected prior to 1986). The 546,600 daily vehicles recorded at the Queens–Nassau border accounted for 49.3% of the total. During the ten years between 1963 and 1973, volume recorded at the City borders rose 36.2% to an average of 1,510,700 vehicles per day (401,500 additional vehicles), with increases exceeding 20% at all border screenlines. Daily volume on the three Staten Island–New Jersey bridges nearly tripled to 81,000 from 27,400. The largest numerical increase was at the Manhattan–New Jersey screenline, where daily volume rose to 397,200 vehicles from 265,600, an increase of 49.5%. Bronx–Westchester traffic rose 34.1% to 361,700 from 269,700, while traffic between Queens and Nassau was up 22.7% to 670,700 from 546,600. Growth slowed between 1973 and 1982, with volume recorded at the City borders rising 10.4% during the nine-year period, to 1,667,300 daily vehicles. Traffic continued to increase at all City boundaries: Staten Island–New Jersey up 31.6% to 106,700; Bronx–Westchester up 14.4% to 413,800; Manhattan–New Jersey up 9.2% to 433,700; and Queens-Nassau up 6.3% to 713,100. Between 1982 and 1986, there was increased growth, as monitored traffic at the City borders increased 14.8% during the four-year period, to 1,914,800 daily vehicles (excluding Van Cortlandt Park East in The Bronx, and Central Avenue and Seagirt Boulevard in Queens where traffic was not counted in 1982). Daily volume was up 29.8% to 138,400 on the Staten Island– New Jersey bridges, up 14.6% to 474,000 at the Bronx–Westchester border, up 14.5% to 816,600 between Queens and Nassau, and up 12.0% to 485,800 crossing the Hudson River between Manhattan and New Jersey. From 1986 to 2000, monitored traffic at the New York City boundaries increased modestly, rising by 15.0% during that fourteen–year period, to 2,244,300 daily vehicles in 2000 from 1,951,000 in 1986. At the Bronx–Westchester screenline, daily volume was up 22.3%, to 591,000 in 2000 from 483,200 in 1986 (+107,800 daily vehicles). Daily traffic between Queens and Nassau increased 11.5%, to 940,100 in 2000 from 843,500 in 1986 (+96,600 daily vehicles). Staten Island–New Jersey daily volume rose 18.9%, to 164,700 from 138,400. Daily traffic between Manhattan and New Jersey increased 12.9%, to 548,500 from 485,800. From 1963 to 2010, daily two–way traffic at the 29 City border locations monitored throughout the period nearly doubled, to 2,210,800 in 2010 from 1,109,200 in 1963. Staten Island–New Jersey traffic expanded by 514%, to 168,100 daily vehicles in 2010 from 27,400 in 1963, largely as a result of the opening of the Verrazano–Narrows Bridge in 1964. Manhattan–New Jersey volume increased 91%, to 506,500 in 2010 from 265,600 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 167,300 daily vehicles from 111,100. During the 47-year period from 1963 to 2010, continuously monitored daily traffic increased 129% between The Bronx and Westchester (to 617,500 from 269,700), and 76% between Queens and Nassau (to 963,700 from 546,600).

BRONX - WESTCHESTER SCREENLINE In 1963, the first year that Bronx-Westchester screenline data were analyzed, average daily two-way volume on the ten roadways studied was 269,700 (volumes on Van Cortlandt Park East were not collected prior to 1986). The Major Deegan Expressway and the New England Thruway were the most-traveled facilities, serving 68,300 and 56,100 vehicles per day, respectively. By 1973, daily volume had risen 34.1% to 361,700, some 92,000 more than in 1963. The Major Deegan Expressway remained the highest volume facility, carrying 90,900 daily vehicles, 33.2% more than in 1963, followed by 82,600 on the New England Thruway, 47.4% above the 1963 count. Daily traffic on the Hutchinson River Parkway jumped 80.1% to 29,100 from 16,200. Traffic on Boston Road doubled, to 22,800 daily vehicles from 11,000. Between 1973 and 1982, growth moderated, with average daily traffic rising 14.4% to 413,800 daily vehicles. The largest increase occurred on the Hutchinson River Parkway, where daily traffic rose 65.9% to 48,300 from 29,100. Growth accelerated between 1982 and 1986, boosting Bronx-Westchester traffic to 474,000 daily vehicles, an increase of 14.6% over the four-year period (excluding 9,200 on Van Cortlandt Park East where traffic was not counted in 1982). Large increases in daily volumes were recorded on the Henry Hudson Parkway (up 27.5% to 53,300 from 41,800), the Major Deegan Expressway (up 27.0% to 124,900 from 98,300), and the Bronx River Parkway (up 20.3% to 79,200 from 65,800). Between 1986 and 1993, daily traffic crossing the Bronx-Westchester border increased just 4.7%, to 506,200 from 483,300 (including Van Cortlandt Park East, where traffic was counted for the first time in 1986). The biggest numerical and percentage increase occurred on the Hutchinson River Parkway, where daily traffic rose 22.4% to 66,400 from 54,300. Second was the Henry Hudson Parkway, up 18.4% to 63,100 daily vehicles in 1993 from 53,300 in 1986. From 1993 to 2000, Bronx-Westchester screenline traffic volume increased 16.8%, to 591,000 from 506,200. The largest increases occurred on the Henry Hudson Parkway (up 43.4% to 90,400 daily vehicles from 63,100), the New England Thruway (up 37.9% to 130,900 from 95,000), and the Hutchinson River Parkway (up 29.0%, to 85,700 daily vehicles from 66,400). The most significant decline was on the Major Deegan Expressway, where daily volume decreased 8.8%, to 114,200 in 2000 from 125,300 in 1993. During the 47 years from 1963 to 2010, total daily traffic on the ten facilities monitored throughout the period more than doubled, to 607,300 from 269,700. Most of the growth in Bronx-Westchester traffic since 1963 has occurred on the five limited access highways crossing the screenline. Of the 337,700 additional daily vehicles on the ten continuously-monitored facilities, 322,400 (95% of the total increase) are on the limited access highways. The fastest growth occurred on the Hutchinson River Parkway, where daily volume soared 477%, to 93,200 daily vehicles from 16,200. Henry Hudson Parkway volume more than tripled, to 97,900 daily vehicles from 29,000. New England Thruway volume climbed 137%, to 132,800 from 56,100. On the Bronx River Parkway, volume doubled (to 91,700 from 44,100), while volume on the Major Deegan Expressway and its service roads was up 76% (to 120,400 from 68,300). Boston Road exhibited the largest change of any arterial facility since 1963, with daily volume rising 118%, to 23,900 from 11,000. Volume on White Plains Road increased 37% to 12,600 daily vehicles from 9,200.

QUEENS - NASSAU SCREENLINE In 1963, the first year that Queens-Nassau screenline data were analyzed, average daily two-way total volume on the thirteen roadways studied was 546,600 (volumes on Central Avenue and Seagirt Boulevard were not collected prior to 1986). The highest volume facilities were the Long Island Expressway and its service roads (143,800 daily vehicles), Laurelton Parkway (85,400), Sunrise Highway (59,500), and the Grand Central Parkway and its service road (51,700). By 1973, daily volume had increased 22.7% to 670,700, approximately 124,100 more than in 1963. The Long Island Expressway remained the highest volume facility, carrying 172,200 daily vehicles, 19.8% more than in 1963. Daily volume on the Grand Central Parkway facility doubled, to 104,800 from 51,700, making it the second busiest. Laurelton Parkway volume rose 15.6% to 98,800. Sunrise Highway remained the busiest principle arterial, carrying 62,700 daily vehicles, 5.4% more than in 1963. Between 1973 and 1982, growth slowed, as volume increased just 6.3% to 713,100 daily vehicles. The largest numerical increase occurred on Laurelton Parkway, where daily traffic rose 23.2%, to 121,700 from 98,800. The largest percentage increase occurred on Northern Boulevard where daily traffic increased 26.4%, to 42,000 daily vehicles from 33,200. Growth intensified between 1982 and 1986, raising daily volume to 816,600, an increase of 14.5% over the four-year period (excluding 14,500 on Central Avenue and 12,400 on Seagirt Boulevard where volumes were not counted in 1982). Large increases in daily volume were recorded on the Grand Central Parkway (up 30.8% to 144,000 from 110,000), Laurelton Parkway (up 22.0% to 148,400 from 121,700), the Long Island Expressway (up 12.8% to 189,000 from 167,600), and Rockaway Boulevard (up 22.0% to 56,700 from 46,500). From 1986 to 2000, growth was moderate, as Queens-Nassau screenline volume increased 11.5% during that fourteen-year period, to 940,100 daily vehicles from 843,500. The largest volume increase occurred on the Grand Central Parkway and its service road (increase of 29,200 daily vehicles, or 20.3%, to 173,200 from 144,000). Daily volume on Rockaway Boulevard increased by 17,400 daily vehicles (+30.7%). The largest percentage increase occurred on Seagirt Boulevard (up 41.8%, to 17,600 daily vehicles from 12,400). The biggest decline in daily volume was on Central Avenue (decrease of 750 daily vehicles, or 5.2%, to 13,800 from 14,500). During the 47 years from 1963 to 2010, daily traffic on the thirteen Queens-Nassau facilities monitored throughout the period increased 69.9%, to 928,800 from 546,600. The bulk of growth in Queens-Nassau traffic since 1963 has occurred on the three limited access facilities crossing the screenline. Of the 382,200 additional daily vehicles on the thirteen continuously-monitored facilities, 280,000 (73.3% of the total increase) are on the three limited access routes. The Grand Central Parkway alone absorbed over one-fourth the total screenline traffic increase, its daily volume more than tripling, to 162,900 in 2010 from 51,700 in 1963. On the Laurelton Parkway, volume doubled (to 170,200 daily vehicles from 85,400). Daily traffic on the Long Island Expressway rose 58.5% (to 227,800 from 143,800). Principle arterials undergoing the most significant volume changes since 1963 are Rockaway Boulevard, where volume more than doubled, to 74,100 daily vehicles from 36,500, Jamaica Avenue (up 90.5% to 29,200 from 15,300), Linden Boulevard (up 92.8% to 27,600 from 14,300), and Northern Boulevard (up 34.4%, to 39,100 from 29,100).

New York – New Jersey Screenline
Bayonne Bridge between Staten Island and New Jersey 91
92
NEW YORK - NEW JERSEY SCREENLINE - In 1963, daily traffic between Manhattan and New Jersey averaged 265,600 vehicles. The George Washington Bridge was the most heavily-traveled crossing, serving 127,500 vehicles per day (48.0% of the total). - Between 1963 and 1973, Manhattan-New Jersey volume grew to 397,200 vehicles per day, an increase of 49.5% (131,600 additional daily vehicles). George Washington Bridge volume increased 82.6% (to 232,700 from 127,500), partly as a result of the opening of the lower level in 1962 and the Alexander Hamilton Bridge/TransManhattan Expressway route in 1963 which facilitated travel between Bronx/Queens/Long Island/New England and New Jersey via upper Manhattan. That increase of 105,200 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 99,800 daily vehicles from 79,300 and Holland Tunnel traffic was up 10.1% to 64,700 vehicles per day from 58,800. - Growth slowed considerably between 1973 and 1982, with daily Manhattan-New Jersey volume increasing by just 36,500 vehicles (+9.2%) to 433,700. Daily traffic was up 14.3% to 74,000 through the Holland Tunnel, up 10.7% to 110,500 through the Lincoln Tunnel, and up 7.1% to 249,300 via the George Washington Bridge. - Faster growth resumed between 1982 and 1986, as daily Manhattan-New Jersey traffic reached 485,800, up 12.0% over the four-year period. Daily volume was up 14.9% to 286,400 via the George Washington Bridge, up 10.5% to 122,100 through the Lincoln Tunnel, and up 4.5% to 77,300 through the Holland Tunnel. - From 1986 to 2000, Manhattan-New Jersey traffic increased 12.9%, to 548,500 daily vehicles from 485,800. Volume was up 30.8% through the Holland Tunnel, to 101,100 daily vehicles from 77,300 (increase of 23,800 daily vehicles), up 10.9% at the George Washington Bridge (to 317,600 daily vehicles from 286,400), and up 6.3% through the Lincoln Tunnel (to 129,700 daily vehicles from 122,100). - During the 47 years from 1963 to 2010, daily traffic between Manhattan and New Jersey nearly doubled, to 506,500 from 265,600. George Washington Bridge traffic climbed 129%, to 292,000 from 127,500. Volume increased 51% at the Lincoln Tunnel (to 119,800 from 79,300), and 61% at the Holland Tunnel (to 94,700 from 58,800). - In 1963, Staten Island-New Jersey screenline traffic was only 27,400 vehicles per day. The highest volume was on the Goethals Bridge, 12,500 vehicles per day. - By 1973, motor travel between Staten Island and New Jersey had nearly tripled, to 81,000 daily vehicles, amplified by the opening of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge between Brooklyn and Staten Island in 1964. Much of the new traffic was simply passing through Staten Island. Goethals Bridge traffic jumped 356%, to 56,900 daily vehicles from 12,500 just ten years earlier. Daily volume increased 65% at the Outerbridge Crossing (to 11,700 from 7,100), and 60% at the Bayonne Bridge (to 12,500 from 7,800). - Growth slowed between 1973 and 1982; nevertheless, Staten Island-New Jersey traffic volume rose to 106,700 daily vehicles, an increase of 31.6% during the nine-year period, the highest rate of any City border screenline. Growth was concentrated at the Outerbridge Crossing, where volume nearly quadrupled, to 44,700 daily vehicles. Completion of the West Shore Expressway in the late 1970s provided a continuous limited access route between the Outerbridge Crossing and the Verrazano-Narrows
93
Bridge. Bayonne Bridge traffic increased 9.3%, to 13,600. On the other hand, daily volume on the Goethals Bridge decreased 15.0%, to 48,300. - Renewed growth between 1982 and 1986 boosted daily Staten Island-New Jersey traffic volume to 138,400, a gain of 29.8% in just four years. Growth was fairly evenly distributed among the three facilities: Goethals Bridge up 33.8% to 64,600, Outerbridge Crossing up 29.4% to 57,900, Bayonne Bridge up 16.8% to 15,900. - From 1986 to 2000, Staten Island–New Jersey traffic increased 18.9%. Most of this increase occurred at the Outerbridge Crossing, where daily traffic increased 26.8%, to 73,400 from 57,900. Daily traffic using the Goethals Bridge increased 12.6%, to 72,800 from 64,600. Bayonne Bridge traffic volume was up 16.3%, to 18,500 daily vehicles from 15,900. - During the 47 years from 1963 to 2010, daily traffic between Staten Island and New Jersey soared 514%, to 168,100 from just 27,400. Outerbridge Crossing traffic skyrocketed more than nine fold, to 74,700 from 7,100. Volume on the Goethals Bridge jumped 489%, to 73,500 from 12,500. Bayonne Bridge traffic increased 156%, to 20,000 from 7,800.

The Kosciuszko Bridge carried the bulk of that traffic, 102,200 daily vehicles (63.7% of the total). The Grand Street Bridge served 12,000 daily vehicles (7.5% of the total). Some 17,600 daily vehicles (11.0%) used the J.J. Byrne Memorial Bridge (Greenpoint Avenue Bridge). Finally, the Pulaski Bridge was the route of 28,600 vehicles per day (17.8%). - By 1973, Newtown Creek crossings had increased 4.8% to 168,000 vehicles per day, just 7,600 more than ten years earlier. The Kosciuszko Bridge remained the mosttraveled facility, although its volume slipped to 99,000 daily vehicles, 3.1% fewer than in 1963. The Grand Street Bridge was accommodating 11,700 daily vehicles (down 2.5%), the J.J. Byrne Memorial Bridge/Greenpoint Avenue Bridge 26,800 (up 52.0%), and the Pulaski Bridge 30,500 (up 6.7%). - Between 1973 and 1982, daily volume crossing Newtown Creek rose 7.0%, to 179,800 vehicles. Growth was concentrated solely on the Kosciuszko Bridge, where daily volume rose 30.8% to 129,600. Daily volumes fell on the other three bridges: Grand Street Bridge down 21.5% to 9,200; J.J. Byrne (Greenpoint Avenue) Bridge down 33.2% to 17,900; and Pulaski Bridge down 24.1% to 23,100. - From 1982 to 1986, traffic over Newtown Creek increased rapidly, by 25.0% to 224,800 daily vehicles, with increases occurring on three of the four bridges. By 1986, the Kosciuszko Bridge was carrying 168,300 daily vehicles (up 29.9% from 1982), the Grand Street Bridge 11,400 (up 24.0%), the Pulaski Bridge 30,800 (up 32.9%). The only decline was on the J.J. Byrne/Greenpoint Avenue Bridge, where daily traffic was 19.9% less in 1986 than in 1982 (14,300 vs. 17,900). - Between 1986 and 1993, daily volume crossing Newtown Creek increased just 2.3% during the seven–year period, to 230,000 in 1993 from 224,800 in 1986. Growth was concentrated at the J.J. Byrne Memorial Bridge, where daily volume increased by 11,400 vehicles, to 25,700 in 1993 from 14,300 in 1986, a gain of 79.3%. Daily traffic on the Grand Street Bridge increased by 1,000 vehicles, to 12,400 in 1993 from 11,400 in 1986, a gain of 9.1%. On the Kosciuszko Bridge, daily volume decreased 1.0%, to 166,600 in 1993 from 168,300 in 1986. Volume on the Pulaski Bridge decreased 17.8%, to 25,300 daily vehicles in 1993 from 30,800 in 1986. - Newtown Creek crossings increased 21.7% from 1993 to 2000, with increases recorded on all four bridges. The largest numerical increase occurred on the Kosciuszko Bridge, where daily volume increased to 200,900 in 2000 from 166,600 in 1993 (+20.6%). The largest percentage increase occurred on the Pulaski Bridge, where daily volume increased 48.0%, to 37,400 from 25,300. - During the 47 years from 1963 to 2010, daily traffic crossing Newtown Creek increased 66.5%, to 267,100 from 160,400. Volumes increased on all four facilities: Kosciuszko Bridge up 86.7% to 190,800 from 102,200; J.J.
