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 20, 2022
The south leg carries the load — 2,351 northbound vehicles, or 47% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 214. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 784 vehicles in the hour from 4:00 p.m., 20% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (653). Trucks and buses were 5.9% 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: 653 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 784 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.
How fast traffic moves here
The City's counter on Pape Ave between Frizzell Ave and Wroxeter Ave (131 m away) recorded an average of 43 km/h in its 3-day count in December 2018; 85% of drivers were at or under 52 km/h. That segment carries about 9,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 8 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Strathcona Ave between Lane E of Pape and S of Strathcona and Blake St measured slower: 30 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 37 km/h (Apr 2024) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Blake St (324 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.5% of the 16,329 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.
