Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Sep 5, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 9,485 northbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 1,268. Most cyclists arrived from the south (198 of 372). Morning rush is the busier period: 1,752 vehicles in the peak hour from 7:45 a.m., compared with 1,565 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

The City's counter on Bathurst St between Olive Ave and Vermont Ave (255 m away) recorded an average of 26 km/h in its 6-day count in June 2000; 85% of drivers were at or under 34 km/h. That segment carries about 600 vehicles a day. Bridgman Ave between Kendal Ave and Dartnell Ave measured slower: 22 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 29 km/h (Mar 2018). The reading is 26 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 5 speed humps slow traffic on Bridgman Avenue between Bathurst St and Kendal Ave.

Traffic calming

  • Bridgman Avenue · Bathurst St – Kendal Ave
    5 speed humps

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Dec 23, 2010.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.

Thefts reported at this corner
