Park Lawn & Ringley

Traffic volume8-hour count · Jun 20, 2019

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The north leg carries the load — 3,792 southbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 290. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,241 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 9% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,134). Trucks and buses were 8.1% 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 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2019, 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: 1,134 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,241 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

2018 was the peak year (4 collisions), and 2025 closed with 3. 8% of collisions here involved an injury. 4 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 33% of collisions. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. Since January 2026, 1 more collision has been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jan 20, 2026.

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

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 Park Lawn Rd between Lorne Ave and Waniska Ave (167 m away) recorded an average of 48 km/h in its 24-hour count in November 2021; 85% of drivers were at or under 57 km/h. That segment carries about 13,400 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Ringley Ave between Guthrie Ave and Frances Ave measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 44 km/h (Nov 2025).

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.
