Avenue Rd & Beltline Trl (North)

Traffic volume8-hour count · Apr 5, 2022

Traffic is spread evenly across the approaches, from 3,981 vehicles entering from the south to 4,850 from the north. Morning rush is the busier period: 1,424 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:00 a.m., compared with 1,188 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.4% 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: 1,424 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,188 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).

Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m

Toronto Police recorded no collisions of any severity within 65 m of this intersection in 2016–2025.

One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Sep 7, 2025.

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.

Speeds here, last measured in 2001

The City's counter on Avenue Rd between Killarney Rd and Hillholm Rd (197 m away) recorded an average of 43 km/h in its 5-day count in May 2001; 85% of drivers were at or under 54 km/h. That segment carries about 8,500 vehicles a day. The reading is 25 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
