Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · Jun 7, 2023
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The west leg carries the load — 911 eastbound vehicles, or 44% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 549. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 391 vehicles in the hour from 4:00 p.m., 11% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (351). Trucks and buses were 7.5% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. 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. 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: 351 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 391 from 4:00 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
2018 was the peak year (4 collisions), and 2025 closed with 0. 8% of collisions here involved an injury. 6 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 46% of collisions.

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.
