Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · Mar 18, 2021
The north leg carries the load — 426 southbound vehicles, or 39% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 91. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 189 vehicles in the hour from 4:15 p.m., 43% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (132). Heavy vehicles made up 2.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 6 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
Peak hours: 132 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 189 from 4:15 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
2021 was the peak year (2 collisions), and 2025 closed with 0. 0% of collisions here involved an injury. 1 driver failed to remain at the scene — 17% of collisions.

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.
