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 · Jul 25, 2024
The south leg carries the load — 9,932 northbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 305. Most cyclists arrived from the north (118 of 246). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,985 vehicles in the hour from 5:15 p.m., 55% above the morning peak from 8:45 a.m. (1,280). Heavy vehicles made up 2.0% 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: 1,280 vehicles in the hour from 8:45 a.m. and 1,985 from 5:15 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
2023 was the peak year (8 collisions), and 2025 closed with 4. 29% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 5 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 14% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%.

The most recent report on file is from Aug 10, 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 Pharmacy Ave between Edge Park Ave and Kingswell Cres (51 m away) recorded an average of 51 km/h in its 24-hour count in April 2014; 85% of drivers were at or under 59 km/h. That segment carries about 17,900 vehicles a day. The reading is 12 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Edge Park Ave between Victoria Park Ave and Harris Park Dr measured slower: 39 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 46 km/h (Mar 2026) — a much more recent reading than the one above.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pharmacy Ave · Edge Park Ave – Kingswell Cres · 51 m | Apr 2014 · 24 h | 17,948 | 51 km/h | 59 km/h | 65 km/h |
| Edge Park Ave · Victoria Park Ave – Harris Park Dr · 329 m | Mar 2026 · 3 days | 1,842 | 39 km/h | 46 km/h | 51 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.
