Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 9, 2024 · weekend

The east leg carries the load — 11,381 westbound vehicles, or 29% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 8,897. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 3,915 vehicles in the hour from 2:30 p.m., 58% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (2,485). Heavy vehicles made up 1.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 2,485 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 3,915 from 2:30 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m

2017 was the peak year (23 collisions), and 2025 closed with 20. 19% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 15 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 1% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 6 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window.

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.
