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 · Nov 29, 2005
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 845 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 37% of the total, against 253 from the west. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 639 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m., 47% above the afternoon peak from 4:30 p.m. (434). Heavy vehicles were a negligible share of traffic (0.4%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 21 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2005, 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: 639 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 434 from 4:30 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.
Speeds here, last measured in 2012
On Banbury Rd between Denlow Blvd and Sagewood Dr, 111 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in November 2012 put the average speed at 42 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 49 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 54 km/h or more. That segment carries about 2,700 vehicles a day. The reading is 14 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Denlow Blvd between Caravan Dr and Cheval Dr measured slower: 40 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 48 km/h (Jun 2000).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Banbury Rd · Denlow Blvd – Sagewood Dr · 111 m | Nov 2012 · 24 h | 2,679 | 42 km/h | 49 km/h | 54 km/h |
| Denlow Blvd · Caravan Dr – Cheval Dr · 142 m | Jun 2000 · 24 h | 758 | 40 km/h | 48 km/h | 53 km/h |
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.
