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 · Oct 30, 2024
The west leg carries the load — 9,720 eastbound vehicles, or 36% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 3,229. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,251 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,304 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 2,251 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,304 from 5:00 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
2024 was the peak year (21 collisions), and 2025 closed with 20. 9% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 13 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 10% of collisions, below the citywide 16%.

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 Lawrence Ave E between Ronan Ave and Wanless Cres (288 m away) recorded an average of 57 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2021; 85% of drivers were at or under 65 km/h. That segment carries about 21,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Lawrence Cres between Lympstone Ave and Mount Pleasant Rd (Id: 2364668) measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Mar 2024).
