Traffic and safety

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

Traffic volume14-hour count · Jan 7, 2025

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 11,427 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 435 from the east. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,084 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,107 from 4:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 22 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

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

On Bathurst St between Reiner Rd and McAllister Rd, 242 m from the corner, a 3-day count in June 2022 put the average speed at 50 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 58 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 64 km/h or more. That segment carries about 21,500 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
