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 · Jun 20, 2019
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The north leg carries the load — 643 southbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 92. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 266 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 25% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (212). Trucks and buses were 9.2% 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 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2019, 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: 212 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 266 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
2024 was the peak year (2 collisions), and 2025 closed with 1. 0% of collisions here involved an injury. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. The most recent report on file is from Feb 9, 2025.
The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

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 Varsity Rd between Doran Ave and Juliana Crt (174 m away) recorded an average of 35 km/h in its 24-hour count in June 2026; 85% of drivers were at or under 44 km/h.
