Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Jun 30, 2026

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The west leg carries the load — 12,611 eastbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 791. Most cyclists arrived from the west (91 of 153). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,484 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 56% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (1,597). Heavy vehicles made up 3.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.
