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 19, 2024
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The north leg carries the load — 17,679 southbound vehicles, or 46% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 3,336. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 3,279 vehicles in the hour from 5:15 p.m., 8% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (3,035). Heavy vehicles made up 2.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 3,035 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 3,279 from 5:15 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

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.
