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 28, 2018
The south leg carries the load — 2,670 northbound vehicles, or 45% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 5. Most cyclists arrived from the north (45 of 104). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 986 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 12% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (881). Heavy vehicles made up 3.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 9 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2018, 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: 881 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 986 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).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m
2024 was the peak year (3 collisions), and 2025 closed with 0. 0% of collisions here involved an injury. 2 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 20% of collisions.

No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Feb 9, 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.
How fast traffic moves here
The City's counter on Jones Ave between Strathcona Ave and Harcourt Ave (186 m away) recorded an average of 46 km/h in its 24-hour count in June 2017; 85% of drivers were at or under 53 km/h. That segment carries about 9,400 vehicles a day. The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Chatham Ave between Lane E of Jones and S of Chatham and Euston Ave measured slower: 34 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 42 km/h (Mar 2021). At the school-zone speed sign on Jones Ave (344 m away, 40 km/h limit), 4.7% of the 88,259 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority.
