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 · May 26, 2015
The south leg carries the load — 219 northbound vehicles, or 27% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 160. Morning rush is the busier period: 145 vehicles in the peak hour from 7:45 a.m., compared with 116 from 2:30 p.m. Trucks and buses were 10.7% 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 11 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2015, not today's volume. 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: 145 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 116 from 2:30 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
2022 was the peak year (1 collision), and 2025 closed with 0. 0% of collisions here involved an injury. 1 driver failed to remain at the scene — 100% of collisions. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. The most recent report on file is from Nov 3, 2022.

| All reported collisions | 1 | |
| With an injury | 0 | |
| Property damage only | 1 | |

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.
Speeds here, last measured in 2020
The City's counter on Barker Ave between Southridge Ave and Binswood Ave (184 m away) recorded an average of 34 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2020; 85% of drivers were at or under 43 km/h. That segment carries about 900 vehicles a day. The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Glebemount Ave between Dunkirk Rd and Barker Ave measured slower: 25 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 35 km/h (Feb 2002).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Glebemount Ave · Dunkirk Rd – Barker Ave · 50 m | Feb 2002 · 24 h | 645 | 25 km/h | 35 km/h | 40 km/h |
| Barker Ave · Southridge Ave – Binswood Ave · 184 m | Nov 2020 · 3 days | 919 | 34 km/h | 43 km/h | 47 km/h |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
