Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Nov 9, 2024 (a weekend day)

The west leg carries the load — 9,356 eastbound vehicles, or 47% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 1,087. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,882 vehicles in the hour from 3:00 p.m., 38% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (1,365). Heavy vehicles made up 3.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 22 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

The City's most recent midblock count on Carrier Dr between Dansk Crt and Albion Rd (91 m away, Dec 2011) recorded volume only — about 5,468 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Carrier Dr · Dansk Crt – Albion Rd · 91 mDec 2011 · 3 days5,468
Albion Rd · Albion W – Carrier Dr · 233 mMay 2015 · 24 h13,424

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.
