Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets, and the red-light camera

Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 9, 2024 · weekend

The west leg carries the load — 11,963 eastbound vehicles, or 44% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 1,278. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,664 vehicles in the hour from 2:15 p.m., 53% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (1,746). Heavy vehicles made up 1.0% 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 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,746 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 2,664 from 2:15 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.

Speeds here, last measured in 2017

The City's counter on Silverstone Dr between Tinton Cres and Lexington Ave (172 m away) recorded an average of 48 km/h in its 24-hour count in June 2017; 85% of drivers were at or under 58 km/h. That segment carries about 3,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Is Silverstone & Albion a walkable intersection?
