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 · Oct 25, 2023
The west leg carries the load — 1,251 eastbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 109. Most cyclists arrived from the east (132 of 263). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 314 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 43% above the morning peak from 8:45 a.m. (220). Heavy vehicles made up 1.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 220 vehicles in the hour from 8:45 a.m. and 314 from 4:30 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
2023 was the peak year (2 collisions), and 2025 closed with 0. 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 26, 2023.

| All reported collisions | 4 | |
| With an injury | 0 | |
| Property damage only | 4 | |

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.
How fast traffic moves here
The City's counter on Baby Point Rd between Brumell Ave and Humbercrest Blvd (186 m away) recorded an average of 37 km/h in its 2-day count in June 2012; 85% of drivers were at or under 44 km/h. That segment carries about 2,900 vehicles a day. The reading is 14 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Thornhill Ave between Raymond Ave and Baby Point Rd measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 43 km/h (Apr 2024) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on St Marks Rd (237 m away, 30 km/h limit), 0.7% of the 12,254 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — almost none.
