Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume14-hour count · Jul 9, 2024

The east leg carries the load — 9,263 westbound vehicles, or 51% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 25. Most cyclists arrived from the east (364 of 654). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,555 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 15% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,349). Heavy vehicles made up 3.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,349 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,555 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.
