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 · Jan 23, 1996
Traffic is spread evenly across the approaches, from 5,225 vehicles entering from the west to 5,619 from the east. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,497 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,559 from 4:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 31 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 1996, 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: 1,497 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,559 from 4:15 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 Davenport Rd between Salem Ave N and Bartlett Ave N (51 m away) recorded an average of 41 km/h in its 7-day count in June 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 48 km/h.
