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 8, 2003
The south leg carries the load — 4,743 northbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 163. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,517 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,457 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 23 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2003, 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: 1,517 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,457 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
2016 was the peak year (6 collisions), and 2025 closed with 2. 13% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 7 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 22% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%.

The most recent report on file is from Aug 21, 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.
