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 · Jan 2, 2007
The north leg carries the load — 3,488 southbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 271. Most cyclists arrived from the south (56 of 115). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,156 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 40% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (825). Trucks and buses were 7.6% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 20 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2007, 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: 825 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,156 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).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m
2024 was the peak year (5 collisions), and 2025 closed with 2. 12% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 3 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 12% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. The most recent report on file is from Feb 12, 2025.
No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Apr 7, 2009.

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.
