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 · Jan 22, 2026
The east leg carries the load — 11,316 westbound vehicles, or 42% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 1,542. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,627 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 32% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (1,995). Trucks and buses were 7.3% 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 recent, so it reflects current conditions.
Peak hours: 1,995 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,627 from 4:45 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 (44 collisions), and 2025 closed with 22. 9% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 57 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 24% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 1% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 13 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 25, 2026.
No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 2 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Jan 12, 2013.

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 2021
The City's counter on Tangiers Rd between Finch Corridor Trl and Murray Ross Pkwy (381 m away) recorded an average of 37 km/h in its 3-day count in December 2021; 85% of drivers were at or under 45 km/h. That segment carries about 4,600 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

| Tangiers Rd · Finch Corridor Trl – Murray Ross Pkwy · 381 m | Dec 2021 · 3 days | 4,622 | 37 km/h | 45 km/h | 49 km/h |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
