Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m

2023 was the peak year (3 collisions), and 2025 closed with 2. 0% of collisions here involved an injury. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. The most recent report on file is from Dec 4, 2025.

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

A collision counts when its recorded location is within 65 m of the centreline node, intersection-related or not. KSI = killed or seriously injured, the basis of the danger rankings; records can lag a year or more, so the current year is outside the window. How collisions are counted.
