Edmond’s Highest-Traffic Intersections, Ranked
Intersection counts highlight busy segments of 33rd, 15th, 2nd and Broadway as Edmond prepares to prioritize street projects.
As Edmond begins allocating funds from the voter-approved Capital Improvement Projects sales tax, recent intersection counts provide a clear snapshot of where vehicular demand was highest in 2024 and 2025.
Average Daily Traffic, or ADT, estimates how many vehicles pass through an intersection on a typical day. While ADT alone does not determine capital investment decisions, it remains one of the most objective indicators of corridor demand. The figures below reflect the most recent available counts for each intersection. Not every location is measured annually.

15th & Santa Fe (2024) – 44,967
Structural Patterns in the Data
33rd Street carries the heaviest volumes
The highest recorded ADT in the two-year period was 33rd & Broadway at nearly 68,000 vehicles per day in 2024. Additional 33rd Street intersections appear in the top tier, signaling sustained east-west demand across much of the corridor.
Broadway functions as a primary north–south spine
Broadway appears multiple times in the top ten, reinforcing its role as a through-route connecting residential areas, commercial centers and regional access points. These intersections serve both local trips and cross-metro travel.
15th Street remains a commercial artery
Three 15th Street intersections rank in the top ten. High volumes reflect retail concentration, school traffic and steady crosstown movement, underscoring its continued role as one of Edmond’s busiest commercial corridors.
2nd Street shows sustained cross-town flow
Although fewer 2nd Street intersections appear in the rankings, 2nd & Bryant leads the 2025 data at more than 61,000 vehicles per day. Other nearby 2nd Street intersections also carry substantial traffic, even if they fall outside the top ten.
Context for Capital Planning
High traffic volume does not automatically correlate with crash rates or pavement condition. However, sustained ADT above roughly 45,000 to 60,000 vehicles per day typically places measurable strain on signal timing, turning capacity, lane configuration and pavement life cycles.
When evaluated alongside crash patterns, pedestrian activity, land-use intensity and projected growth, these intersections provide a logical starting point for corridor-level analysis. They are not a final project list, but they establish where demand is most concentrated.
Why This Matters Now
As Edmond moves from voter approval to project prioritization under Paving The Way, traffic counts offer a quantitative foundation for decision-making. Resident input will help determine which corridors rise in priority. The ADT data clarifies where vehicular demand was most concentrated in the years immediately preceding 2026.
Before the next round of street investments is finalized, these numbers illustrate where Edmond’s network is already operating at its highest volumes and where future improvements would affect the greatest number of drivers.
