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 · Mar 4, 2015

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The east leg carries the load — 449 westbound vehicles, or 55% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 2. Morning rush is the busier period: 182 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:30 a.m., compared with 154 from 2:45 p.m. Trucks and buses were 22.8% 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 12 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2015, 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.

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 Mariposa Ave between Lane N of St Clair and E of Mariposa and Pritchard Ave (110 m away) recorded an average of 33 km/h in its 2-day count in April 2019; 85% of drivers were at or under 43 km/h. That segment carries about 300 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Pritchard Ave between Lane N of St Clair and E of Batavia and Batavia Ave measured slower: 28 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 36 km/h (May 2025) — a much more recent reading than the one above.
