Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Oct 24, 2024

The west leg carries the load — 11,809 eastbound vehicles, or 38% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 3,373. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,853 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 27% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (2,247). Heavy vehicles made up 4.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

The City's counter on Wilson Heights Blvd between Goodwill Ave and Model Ave (324 m away) recorded an average of 62 km/h in its 24-hour count in January 2008; 85% of drivers were at or under 73 km/h. That segment carries about 11,300 vehicles a day. Wilson Ave between Champlain Blvd and Faywood Blvd measured slower: 53 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 63 km/h (May 2007). The reading is 18 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Wilson Ave · Champlain Blvd – Faywood Blvd · 144 mMay 2007 · 24 h23,49553 km/h63 km/h69 km/h
Wilson Heights Blvd · Goodwill Ave – Model Ave · 324 mJan 2008 · 24 h11,31062 km/h73 km/h115 km/h

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.
