Alameda & Strader

Traffic volume14-hour count · Jun 12, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 1,612 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 98% of the total, against 7 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the north (41 of 70). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 133 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 141 from 4:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 133 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 141 from 4:00 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

On Alameda Ave between Bude St and Clovelly Ave, 116 m from the corner, a 3-day count in June 2024 put the average speed at 33 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 39 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 43 km/h or more. That segment carries about 2,400 vehicles a day.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.

Four thefts from vehicles and one bike theft were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft.

Police offset every occurrence to the nearest intersection before publishing, so these are thefts on the streets and premises around this node, not necessarily at the corner itself. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see Oakwood Village.
