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 · Jan 25, 2020 · weekend
The south leg carries the load — 1,152 northbound vehicles, or 39% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 6. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 576 vehicles in the hour from 2:00 p.m., 83% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (315). Heavy vehicles made up 4.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2020, 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: 315 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 576 from 2:00 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
2023 was the peak year (5 collisions), and 2025 closed with 2. 0% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 9 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 31% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. Since January 2026, 2 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 29, 2026.
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.

The City's most recent midblock count on Market St between The Esplanade and Front St E (109 m away, Feb 2002) recorded volume only — about 960 vehicles a day — with no speed data.
