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 10, 2006

The south leg carries the load — 190 northbound vehicles, or 31% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 132. Morning rush is the busier period: 119 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:00 a.m., compared with 100 from 2:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 21 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2006, 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.

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 Barker Ave between Southridge Ave and Binswood Ave (389 m away) recorded an average of 34 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2020; 85% of drivers were at or under 43 km/h. That segment carries about 900 vehicles a day. The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
