Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Nov 14, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The east leg carries the load — 932 westbound vehicles, or 51% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 100. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 239 vehicles in the hour from 5:30 p.m., 54% above the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. (155). Heavy vehicles made up 1.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 22 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

How fast traffic moves here

The City's counter on Danzig St between Marlena Dr and Betty Frank Gt (67 m away) recorded an average of 37 km/h in its 3-day count in June 2024; 85% of drivers were at or under 44 km/h. That segment carries about 2,000 vehicles a day.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.
