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 · Mar 8, 2022
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The east leg carries the load — 2,778 westbound vehicles, or 51% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 307. Morning rush is the busier period: 1,025 vehicles in the peak hour from 7:45 a.m., compared with 846 from 4:15 p.m. Trucks and buses were 8.8% 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 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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: 1,025 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 846 from 4:15 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.
