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 · Nov 30, 2023
The north leg carries the load — 9,968 southbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 94. Morning rush is the busier period: 2,927 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:00 a.m., compared with 2,661 from 2:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 2,927 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,661 from 2:00 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
2023 was the peak year (139 collisions), and 2025 closed with 117. 13% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 116 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 19% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 4% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 91 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 26, 2026.
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Jul 12, 2019. Going back to 2006, the total is 2. The police all-collisions file records 1 fatal collision here in 2016–2025; the KSI file, which is compiled separately and geocoded to the nearest leg, places it just outside the 65 m radius.
