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 28, 2023
The east leg carries the load — 2,086 westbound vehicles, or 47% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 268. Most cyclists arrived from the east (56 of 123). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 792 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 21% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (656). Heavy vehicles made up 2.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 656 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 792 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).

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.
Speeds here, last measured in 2015
The City's counter on Windermere Ave between Annette St and Lane N of Annette and E of Willard (26 m away) recorded an average of 32 km/h in its 24-hour count in June 2015; 85% of drivers were at or under 38 km/h. That segment carries about 2,600 vehicles a day.
