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 · Nov 7, 2016
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The north leg carries the load — 2,376 southbound vehicles, or 46% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 488. Most cyclists arrived from the north (41 of 71). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 745 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 759 from 4:15 p.m. Trucks and buses were 5.4% 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 10 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2016, 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: 745 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 759 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
2024 was the peak year (3 collisions), and 2025 closed with 1. 0% of collisions here involved an injury. 1 driver failed to remain at the scene — 8% of collisions.

The most recent report on file is from Sep 4, 2026.
No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Jun 3, 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.
How fast traffic moves here
The City's counter on Victoria Park Ave between Swanwick Ave and Linton Ave (265 m away) recorded an average of 43 km/h in its 24-hour count in November 2004; 85% of drivers were at or under 50 km/h. That segment carries about 11,100 vehicles a day. The reading is 22 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Blantyre Ave (240 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.6% of the 33,621 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

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.
