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 · Apr 4, 2001
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The east leg carries the load — 4,444 westbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 1,842. Most cyclists arrived from the east (44 of 93). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,475 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 1,451 from 4:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 26 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2001, 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: 1,475 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 1,451 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).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m

People walking or cycling were involved in 4% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 5 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jul 15, 2026.

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.
How fast traffic moves here
The City's counter on Moore Ave between Pottery Rd and Mallory Cres (34 m away) recorded an average of 41 km/h in its 3-day count in September 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 48 km/h. That segment carries about 12,100 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Pottery Rd between Bayview Ave and Moore Ave measured slower: 26 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 34 km/h (Apr 2025).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Moore Ave · Pottery Rd – Mallory Cres · 34 m | Sep 2022 · 3 days | 12,128 | 41 km/h | 48 km/h | 53 km/h |
| Pottery Rd · Bayview Ave – Moore Ave · 57 m | Apr 2025 · 3 days | 4,069 | 26 km/h | 34 km/h | 39 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.
