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 · Feb 16, 2022
The west leg carries the load — 2,513 eastbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 152. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 872 vehicles in the hour from 4:00 p.m., 11% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (789). Heavy vehicles made up 2.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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: 789 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 872 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
2016 was the peak year (3 collisions), and 2025 closed with 0. 25% of collisions here involved an injury. 1 driver failed to remain at the scene — 13% of collisions. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. Since January 2026, 1 more collision has been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Apr 7, 2026.
No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 2 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on May 15, 2015.

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 2002
The City's counter on Glebemount Ave between Dunkirk Rd and Barker Ave (148 m away) recorded an average of 25 km/h in its 24-hour count in February 2002; 85% of drivers were at or under 35 km/h. That segment carries about 600 vehicles a day. The reading is 24 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |

| Mortimer Ave · Glebemount Ave – Woodmount Ave · 103 m | Apr 2009 · 3 days | 5,591 | — | — | — |
| Glebemount Ave · Dunkirk Rd – Barker Ave · 148 m | Feb 2002 · 24 h | 645 | 25 km/h | 35 km/h | 40 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.
