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 · Dec 10, 2022 · weekend

The north leg carries the load — 3,370 southbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 120. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,064 vehicles in the hour from 2:00 p.m., 50% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (707). Heavy vehicles made up 1.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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: 707 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 1,064 from 2:00 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 Royal York Rd between Country Club Dr and North Dr (357 m away) recorded an average of 56 km/h in its 24-hour count in December 2009; 85% of drivers were at or under 62 km/h. That segment carries about 9,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 17 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Allanhurst Dr between Swordbill Dr and Newell Crt measured slower: 43 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 51 km/h (Apr 2024) — a much more recent reading than the one above.
