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 · Nov 29, 2023
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 6,374 northbound vehicles, or 46% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 2,032. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,170 vehicles in the hour from 4:00 p.m., 12% above the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. (1,929). Trucks and buses were 5.2% 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 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 1,929 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 2,170 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.
