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 22, 2022
The west leg carries the load — 1,977 eastbound vehicles, or 30% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 1,410. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,067 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 12% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (956). Heavy vehicles made up 4.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 5 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: 956 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,067 from 4:30 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
2023 was the peak year (10 collisions), and 2025 closed with 2. 27% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 6 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 10% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 3% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 2 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 9, 2026.

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 Grandravine Dr between Grandravine Park Trl and Frankton Cres (195 m away) recorded an average of 48 km/h in its 24-hour count in August 2017; 85% of drivers were at or under 56 km/h. That segment carries about 6,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Sentinel Rd between Grandravine Dr and Hucknall Rd measured slower: 37 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 43 km/h (Nov 2010). At the school-zone speed sign on Sentinel Rd (191 m away, 40 km/h limit), 2.3% of the 48,972 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority.
