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 · Dec 14, 2021
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The west leg carries the load — 5,935 eastbound vehicles, or 53% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 268. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,888 vehicles in the hour from 4:00 p.m., 69% above the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. (1,119). Heavy vehicles made up 3.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, 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: 1,119 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 1,888 from 4:00 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 Heyworth Cres between Woodbine Ave and Kingston Rd (87 m away) recorded an average of 25 km/h in its 7-day count in June 2018; 85% of drivers were at or under 33 km/h.
