Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 5, 2024
The west leg carries the load — 17,479 eastbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 547. Most cyclists arrived from the west (74 of 95). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,981 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 2,968 from 4:15 p.m. Trucks and buses were 7.6% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 2,981 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 2,968 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.
