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).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Apr 16, 1991

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 6,619 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 337 from the north. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,938 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,859 from 4:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 35 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 1991, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.

Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.

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 St Clair Ave W between Christie St and Humewood Dr (400 m away, Jan 2019) recorded volume only — about 8,082 vehicles a day — with no speed data. 2 speed humps slow traffic on Atlas Avenue between St Clair Ave W and Dundurn Cres.

Traffic calming

  • Atlas Avenue · St Clair Ave W – Dundurn Cres
    2 speed humps

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.

One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. It involved vehicle occupants only — no pedestrian or cyclist. It happened in darkness. The most recent was on Feb 1, 2020. Going back to 2006, the total is 3.
