Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets, and the red-light camera
Traffic volume8-hour count · Oct 1, 2020
The east leg carries the load — 5,238 westbound vehicles, or 42% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 554. Most cyclists arrived from the east (63 of 144). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,125 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 68% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (1,264). Trucks and buses were 10.6% 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 6 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2020, 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: 1,264 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,125 from 4:45 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
2017 was the peak year (24 collisions), and 2025 closed with 5. 25% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 10 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 8% of collisions, below the citywide 16%.

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 2013
The City's counter on Thirty Seventh St between James St and Lake Shore Blvd W (130 m away) recorded an average of 38 km/h in its 2-day count in May 2013; 85% of drivers were at or under 47 km/h. That segment carries about 1,200 vehicles a day. The reading is 13 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

| Thirty Seventh St · James St – Lake Shore Blvd W · 130 m | May 2013 · 2 days | 1,178 | 38 km/h | 47 km/h | 50 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.
