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 · Apr 5, 2022
The south leg carries the load — 7,692 northbound vehicles, or 46% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 752. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,541 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,462 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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.
Peak hours: 2,541 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,462 from 5:00 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

A collision counts when its recorded location is within 65 m of the centreline node, intersection-related or not. KSI = killed or seriously injured, the basis of the danger rankings; records can lag a year or more, so the current year is outside the window. How collisions are counted.
How fast traffic moves here
The City's counter on Avenue Rd between Glengrove Ave W and Glenview Ave (65 m away) recorded an average of 41 km/h in its 24-hour count in November 2018; 85% of drivers were at or under 53 km/h. That segment carries about 25,300 vehicles a day. The reading is 8 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Glengrove Ave W between Avenue Rd and Coldstream Ave measured slower: 32 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Nov 2025) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Broadway Ave (244 m away, 30 km/h limit), 0.8% of the 232,550 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — almost none. 10 speed humps slow traffic on Glengrove Avenue West between Avenue Rd and Yonge St.
