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 · Apr 23, 2025

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 4,885 northbound vehicles, or 54% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 1,476. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 994 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 26% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (791). Trucks and buses were 6.5% 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 18 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

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 Grenoble Dr between Vendome Pl and Flemingdon Park Trl (269 m away) recorded an average of 43 km/h in its 24-hour count in December 2005; 85% of drivers were at or under 52 km/h. That segment carries about 2,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 21 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Spanbridge Rd between Grenoble Dr and Linkwood Lane measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (May 2026) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Grenoble Dr (133 m away, 40 km/h limit), 1.9% of the 74,479 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority.
