Ronds in the Town of Pickering havc rccorded n suflicient numbcr of collisions to be considercd
High Collision Rate Locntions. These locations nre (I) the signnliud intersection of Kingston
Road nt Whitcs Rond and (2) mid-block on Brock Rond between Dillingham Road anJ Onyly
Slreet. The actunl Icvel of dctail provided in the 1997 summury, howcver, is minimal as il only
confirtns that no fatulities occurred at either location. A further invcstigation of cach location's
specific collision summnry is required to determine whether pattems exist thut may be resolvcd
through cortective action. The Region should be requestcd to review thc collision rccords for
ench localion in further deteil and udvise whether opemtionnl improvemcnls cnn bc made.
BACKdROUND:
The Rcgionul Municipality of Durham rccenlly rcleascd its 1997 Collision Summary. This
annunl document is n gathering of nll reportabie collisions on Regional Roads and a compilntion

Wilh specific reference tn the 1997 Summary, two nreus in the Town of Pickering nrc identified
as High Collision Rnte Locations. These two locutions arc the signalizcd interscction of
Kingston Road nt Whites Rond (Rcgional Road 38), and mid-block on Brack Road (Regionnl

Thc collision rnles in 1997 nl lhc intcrscction of Kingslon Road al Whilcs Road und mid•block
on Drock Road betwccn Dillingham Road and Iiayly Strcct arc 1.97 nnd 10.15, respcctivcly.
'fhese collis;on retes suggest Ihat investignlion is rcquircd at ench locotion lo Jetemiine whcther
corrective action is possible. Such com:ctivc actiom m�y include rcviscd signul timings or even
mnjor rcconstruclion of the affected inlcrsectians or road sections.
"Ilie Kingston Road at Whites RoaJ intersection is one of thc highnst volume intcrsections in the
Region. Par this primary rcason thc Gcqucncy of collisions can be cxpcctcJ lo bc higher than
thnt of othcr Iess busy locations. While thc numlxr of reponeJ collisions (23) in 1997, may be
the highest in thc Rcgion, Ihc aclunl collision rnlc is lowcr than thnl of nther intcrseclinns with
much less unffic. Thc collision ratc cnn bc vcry subjcctivc as it can vary cilhcr up or down from
year to ycur. for inslnncc, in 1996 thc snmc number of callisians (23) wcrc rcportcJ at the
Kingston Rond ut Whitcs Road intcrsection but a much highcr avcrogc daily trafiic volumc of
44,000 vehicles existed, n full 12,000 vchicles morc than in 1997. 1'hc corresponJing collision
rate for thc Kingston Road nt Whites RoaJ intcrsection in 1996 was 1.43. Thc reported
collisions nnd their corresponding rates urc specific to Ihe intcrscclion anJ do nat include any
collisions that niay havc occurrcd ut thc Tim Horton's or Shcll Scrvice Stntion drivcway
entrnnces. Of thc collisions reported in 1997, at ihc Kingston Road at Whites Road intcrscction
no fatalities w�re involved.
The scction of Brock Road mid•block between Dillinghnm Road nnJ Dayly Strcet has nlso
posted high collision mtes in bnlh 1996 nnd 1997. Although it hus not bcen canfirtncd, it is
probuble thnt the tuming movements from tho commercial piwa und servicc sWtion driveway
entrances con(lict with the wide pnvement widlh and high opernting speeds found on Drock Road
in this xrea. Further review of each individual collision can dctertnine whcther spccific pattems

The frcquency and mtes of collisions in 1997 for the intcrsection of Kingston Rond nt Whites

_ INTRODUCT[ON
The Collision Summary is an annual rcport of ull collisians occurting on Regianal Roads • excluding
Highway 401, King's Highways, and local Municipal strcets. A Motor Vehlcle Collision is reportable
whan any of the following conditions apply:
(u) property demagc is in excess of S I,OU0.00.
(b) the collision results in personal injury,
(c) n govemment vehicle is involved,
(d) churges are laid as a result of the collision.
7luough the analysis of tra�c collisians, the Regionnl Municipality is able to improve their design
and maintenance standards and prioritiu operational improvements, Locations which require
increased surveillance ure identified to aid selective enforcement by Durham Regional Policc.
Trafftecollisionsareaprimarycauseofaccidentaldeaths,injuricsandassociatedpropertylosses. The
intention of this report is W provide factual infarmation to those agencies and persons concemed with
the safety of the roadway transportatian system under Regional jurisdiction wilhin the Regionnl
Municipnlity of Durhum.
Traffic, collisions frequently involve complex interactions between human behaviour, vehicle
chnracteristics end environmental condilions. The fnctoror factors responsible for causing a collision
nre not always the most obvious or rendily apparent. Cnution should be exercised in dmwing
conclusions from the stutistics presented in this report nnd conclusions should be dmwn only with
appropriate qunlifications and supportive infortnation.
Please note thet this report only deuls with repunuble collisions. There is no way to detertnine the
numberofnon•reportablecollisionswhichoccurwithintheRegion. Thenumbersinlhisreportwould
be slightly skewed if we were able to take into considerotion thc numbcr of collisions thot go
w¢eported.

. SUMMARY
In 1997, 7,916 collisions werc reported on all Municipat Roadways by the Durhan Reg(onel Police.
Of the total, 3,906 or 47% occurted on Regional Roads. These �,7C6 collisions resulted in:
• 16 collisions with 19 driver or passenger fatalitles (14 moror vehicle occupants and 5
pedestrians),
• 2,596 (70%) pn.perty damage coilisions.
• 1,077 driver, cyclist or p�ssenger injuries (excluding pedestrians).
• i 7 pedestrian injuries (excluding fatalities).
These collisions occurred nt different locations under verious conditions throughout the Regional
Municipality. Some interesting notes rcgarding those collisions include,
• 99. I% occurred on dry pavement.
• 72.4 % occwred unJer clear weather conditions,
• S l.9% occurred at an intersection.
• 31.4% occurted during lhe PM peak (3:00•6:00).
• 5.4 % involved nlcohol.
Collisions at different localions (intersections or mid-biocks) are best campnrcd by n collision ratc�
which tekes into account the valume of tra�c, The following is a brief comparison of collision rates
ot ttuee locations across the Rcgion:
i) of the signaliud intersections, Bloor Street and Fnrewell Avenue experienceJ the
highest collision mte of 3,98. 71ure were 5 collisions and a 24-hour entering volume
, of 3,438 vchicles .
ii) ofthenon•signaliudintersections,RegionalRoad8rndLakeRidgeRoadexperienced
the highest collision rate of 2.31. '[liere were 5 collisions and a 24-hour entering
volume of 5,930 vehicles.
-- iii) of the mid•block locations, Chemplain Avenue, from the Oshawe/Whitby border to
Thomton Road, axperienced the highest collision rete of 12.66, There were 6
