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 · Sep 28, 2017
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The north leg carries the load — 6,389 southbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 1,148. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,375 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 11% above the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. (2,149). Heavy vehicles made up 3.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 9 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2017, 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: 2,149 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 2,375 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).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m

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.
