Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Mar 4, 2025

The south leg carries the load — 3,584 northbound vehicles, or 43% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 550. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 989 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 24% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (796). Heavy vehicles made up 1.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 18 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

The City's counter on Duplex Ave between Montgomery Ave and Roselawn Ave (77 m away) recorded an average of 35 km/h in its 24-hour count in April 2011; 85% of drivers were at or under 42 km/h. That segment carries about 10,000 vehicles a day. Montgomery Ave between Duplex Ave and Edith Dr measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 41 km/h (Oct 2023). The reading is 15 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Erskine Ave (323 m away, 30 km/h limit), 3.0% of the 115,287 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a small minority.

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.
