We use 28 measurements of the Hubble parameter, H(z), at intermediate redshifts 0.07⩽z⩽2.3 to determine the present-day Hubble constant H{sub 0} in four cosmological models. We measure H{sub 0}=68.3{sub −2.6}{sup +2.7},68.4{sub −3.3}{sup +2.9},65.0{sub −6.6}{sup +6.5}, and 67.9{sub −2.4}{sup +2.4} km s{sup −1} Mpc{sup −1} (1σ errors) in the ΛCDM (spatially flat and non-flat), ωCDM, and ϕCDM models, respectively. These measured H{sub 0} values are more consistent with the lower values determined from recent data on the cosmic microwave background and baryon acoustic oscillations, as well as with the value found from a median statistical analysis of Huchra’s compilation of H{sub 0} measurements, but include the higher local measurements of H{sub 0} within the 2σ confidence limits.
