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 · Feb 18, 2020
The west leg carries the load — 3,082 eastbound vehicles, or 35% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 1,248. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,413 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 46% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (968). Heavy vehicles made up 0.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2020, 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: 968 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,413 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
The peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 42 collisions. 11% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 35 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 20% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 3% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 37 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Aug 18, 2026.
The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006. The police all-collisions file records 1 fatal collision here in 2016–2025; the KSI file, which is compiled separately and geocoded to the nearest leg, places it just outside the 65 m radius.

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.
Traffic on these streets
The City's most recent midblock count on Ashtonbee Rd between Warden Ave and Thermos Rd (267 m away, Dec 2011) recorded volume only — about 2,981 vehicles a day — with no speed data.
