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 · Nov 27, 2003
The south leg carries the load — 5,649 northbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 111. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,761 vehicles in the hour from 7:30 a.m. and 1,640 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 23 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2003, 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: 1,761 vehicles in the hour from 7:30 a.m. and 1,640 from 5:00 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.
How fast traffic moves here
The City's counter on Columbine Ave between Brookmount Rd and Rainsford Rd (143 m away) recorded an average of 32 km/h in its 24-hour count in September 2010; 85% of drivers were at or under 39 km/h. That segment carries about 800 vehicles a day. The reading is 16 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Kingston Rd (372 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.2% of the 15,424 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.
