Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Oct 24, 2023

The north leg carries the load — 8,186 southbound vehicles, or 57% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 1,420. Most cyclists arrived from the north (40 of 56). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,319 vehicles in the hour from 2:00 p.m., 63% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (809). Heavy vehicles made up 4.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 3 years 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 Yorkdale Rd between Yorkdale S and Yorkdale Dufferin S Ramp (87 m away, Jan 2002) recorded volume only — about 1,119 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Yorkdale Rd · Yorkdale S – Yorkdale Dufferin S Ramp · 87 mJan 2002 · 24 h1,119

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.
