Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume8-hour count · Aug 16, 2017

Traffic is heaviest from the south: 2,503 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 48% of the total, against 69 from the west. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 832 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 793 from 4:30 p.m. Trucks and buses were 22.7% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 9 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2017, 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.
