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 · Apr 14, 2026
The north leg carries the load — 16,851 southbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 661. Most cyclists arrived from the north (56 of 116). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,748 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,874 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.
Peak hours: 2,748 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,874 from 4:45 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

How fast traffic moves here
The City's counter on Rockford Rd between Bathurst St and Stonedene Blvd (113 m away) recorded an average of 41 km/h in its 24-hour count in September 2017; 85% of drivers were at or under 50 km/h.
