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 2014

That segment carries about 2,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 12 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
