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, Oct 24, 2024

The north leg carries the load — 30,014 southbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 3,278. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 4,856 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 4,750 from 3:15 p.m. Trucks and buses were 5.0% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
