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 19, 2024 · weekend
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 7,080 northbound vehicles, or 53% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 486. Most cyclists arrived from the north (72 of 154). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,268 vehicles in the hour from 3:00 p.m., 27% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (995). 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 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 995 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,268 from 3:00 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
2019 was the peak year (9 collisions), and 2025 closed with 6. 13% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 7 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 15% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 9% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 5 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jul 29, 2026.
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.
