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 · Dec 2, 2021

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The east leg carries the load — 6,575 westbound vehicles, or 51% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 188. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,022 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 32% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,530). Trucks and buses were 5.9% 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 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, 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: 1,530 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,022 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

2021 was the peak year (5 collisions), and 2025 closed with 2. 13% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 2 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 9% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. Since January 2026, 5 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Aug 24, 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.
