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 · Oct 19, 2023

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The south leg carries the load — 5,275 northbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 165. Most cyclists arrived from the south (218 of 464). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 904 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 958 from 5:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.9% 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: 904 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 958 from 5:15 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.
