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 · Jun 30, 2026
The north leg carries the load — 11,121 southbound vehicles, or 33% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 4,809. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,994 vehicles in the hour from 4:15 p.m., 33% above the morning peak from 8:45 a.m. (2,249). Heavy vehicles made up 4.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.
Peak hours: 2,249 vehicles in the hour from 8:45 a.m. and 2,994 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).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m
2017 was the peak year (58 collisions), and 2025 closed with 43. 13% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 77 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 19% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%.

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.
