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 · Apr 28, 2026
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The south leg carries the load — 4,303 northbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 293. Most cyclists arrived from the north (58 of 124). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 794 vehicles in the hour from 5:30 p.m., 11% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (717). Heavy vehicles made up 3.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.
Peak hours: 717 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 794 from 5:30 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 Castleton Ave between Lane N of St Clair and E of Mould and Liverpool St (286 m away) recorded an average of 36 km/h in its 2-day count in July 2014; 85% of drivers were at or under 44 km/h. That segment carries about 1,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 12 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Rockcliffe Blvd between Black Creek Trl and Woolner Ave measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 43 km/h (Dec 2025) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Rockcliffe Blvd (232 m away, 30 km/h limit), 24% of the 72,364 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a high share for a school zone.
