Traffic volume8-hour count · Dec 3, 2014
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The west leg carries the load — 25,911 eastbound vehicles, or 70% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 1,229. Most cyclists arrived from the west (94 of 176). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 5,958 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 12% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (5,312). Heavy vehicles made up 4.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 12 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2014, 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: 5,312 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 5,958 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
2018 was the peak year (30 collisions), and 2025 closed with 25. 11% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 14 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 7% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 1% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 23 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 7, 2026.
One collision in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 cyclist was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on May 15, 2018. Going back to 2006, the total is 2. The police all-collisions file records 2 fatal collisions here in 2016–2025; the KSI file, which is compiled separately and geocoded to the nearest leg, places one of them just outside the 65 m radius.

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.
