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 · Nov 10, 2024 · weekend
The east leg carries the load — 10,597 westbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 76. Most cyclists arrived from the east (50 of 72). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,975 vehicles in the hour from 2:30 p.m., 40% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (1,412). Heavy vehicles made up 1.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Sunday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 1,412 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,975 from 2:30 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
2020 was the peak year (4 collisions), and 2025 closed with 2. 45% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 2 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 10% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 5% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 3 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Aug 7, 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 18, 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.
