Street Traffic in New York City, 1885 and 1904
In December, 1885, Francis V. Greene, M.ASCE, read a paper before this Society, entitled “An Account of Some Observations of Street Traffic,”† in which he presented certain data, in regard to ten of the large cities of the United States, collected in that year by the employees of the Barber Asphalt Paving Company. He also called attention to the desirability of having traffic measured systematically at frequent intervals, on a uniform system, in the leading cities of the world, for comparative purposes. Since that date no further observations have been made, as far as the writer is aware, in any of the cities considered by Captain Greene, either in the United States or abroad, with the exception of a count, made in 1896, of the number of vehicles traversing Fifth Avenue, New York City, at various points, before the removal of the granite block pavement from that street.
