Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets, and the red-light camera
Traffic volume14-hour count · Jul 8, 2025
The west leg carries the load — 7,289 eastbound vehicles, or 34% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 3,324. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,038 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 39% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,465). Heavy vehicles made up 4.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 16 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 1,465 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,038 from 5:00 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.

Is Brimley & St Clair a dangerous intersection?
Not by the record: no one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, though police reported 184 lesser collisions. High counts usually track high traffic volume rather than a design flaw; volume is shown alongside so the numbers can be read in context.

Is Brimley & St Clair a walkable intersection?
