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 · Aug 10, 2022
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The east leg carries the load — 384 westbound vehicles, or 86% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 22. Most cyclists arrived from the east (87 of 116). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 105 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 114% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (49). Heavy vehicles made up 2.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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: 49 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 105 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).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m
2024 was the peak year (5 collisions), and 2025 closed with 0. 0% of collisions here involved an injury. 4 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 44% of collisions. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. Since January 2026, 1 more collision has been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Aug 14, 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.
How fast traffic moves here
