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 · Dec 5, 2023
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The north leg carries the load — 1,038 southbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 154. Morning rush is the busier period: 385 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:00 a.m., compared with 325 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.9% 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: 385 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 325 from 5:00 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

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.
How fast traffic moves here
The City's counter on Grand Ave between Melrose St and Algoma St (48 m away) recorded an average of 43 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 52 km/h. That segment carries about 2,600 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Algoma St between Milton St and Wesley St measured slower: 34 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 43 km/h (Oct 2025).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Grand Ave · Melrose St – Algoma St · 48 m | Nov 2022 · 3 days | 2,644 | 43 km/h | 52 km/h | 57 km/h |
| Algoma St · Milton St – Wesley St · 319 m | Oct 2025 · 3 days | 613 | 34 km/h | 43 km/h | 48 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.
