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 · Sep 9, 2009
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The north leg carries the load — 935 southbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 185. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 272 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 291 from 4:30 p.m. Trucks and buses were 6.0% 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 17 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2009, 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: 272 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 291 from 4:30 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.
Speeds here, last measured in 2014
The City's counter on Liverpool St between Lane W of Runnymede and S of Henrietta and Castleton Ave (64 m away) recorded an average of 34 km/h in its 3-day count in September 2009; 85% of drivers were at or under 47 km/h. That segment carries about 900 vehicles a day. The reading is 17 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Castleton Ave between Lane N of St Clair and E of Mould and Liverpool St measured slower: 36 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 44 km/h (Jul 2014) — a much more recent reading than the one above.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Castleton Ave · Lane N of St Clair and E of Mould – Liverpool St · 29 m | Jul 2014 · 2 days | 1,798 | 36 km/h | 44 km/h | 49 km/h |
| Liverpool St · Lane W of Runnymede and S of Henrietta – Castleton Ave · 64 m | Sep 2009 · 3 days | 906 | 34 km/h | 47 km/h | 54 km/h |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
