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 29, 2000
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The south leg carries the load — 4,000 northbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 377. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,506 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,427 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 27 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2000, 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: 1,506 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,427 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).

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 Elmbrook Cres between Garbutt Cres and Hellensfield Cres (271 m away) recorded an average of 37 km/h in its 24-hour count in May 2003; 85% of drivers were at or under 44 km/h. That segment carries about 900 vehicles a day. The reading is 23 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Renforth Dr between Elmbrook Cres and Gentian Dr measured slower: 34 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Jun 2024) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Renforth Dr (1 of 3) (205 m away, 30 km/h limit), 76% of the 148,898 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a high share for a school zone.
