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 4, 2024
The east leg carries the load — 3,814 westbound vehicles, or 46% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 766. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,001 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 45% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (689). Heavy vehicles made up 2.3% 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: 689 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 1,001 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
The peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 6 collisions. 27% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 3 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 10% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 13% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 1 more collision has been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jan 20, 2026.
The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

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 2020
The City's counter on Van Horne Ave between Deerford Rd and Hobart Park Trl (273 m away) recorded an average of 52 km/h in its 3-day count in March 2020; 85% of drivers were at or under 62 km/h. That segment carries about 6,200 vehicles a day. The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Kingslake Rd between Koven Pl and Waddington Cres measured slower: 46 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 53 km/h (May 2019).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Van Horne Ave · Deerford Rd – Hobart Park Trl · 273 m | Mar 2020 · 3 days | 6,193 | 52 km/h | 62 km/h | 68 km/h |
| Kingslake Rd · Koven Pl – Waddington Cres · 296 m | May 2019 · 3 days | 3,384 | 46 km/h | 53 km/h | 58 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.
