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 · May 19, 2022
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 8,448 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 408 from the west. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,422 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,492 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 4 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: 2,422 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,492 from 4:45 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 2004
On Cocksfield Ave between Hove St and Bryant St, 349 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in September 2004 put the average speed at 35 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 44 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 49 km/h or more. That segment carries about 700 vehicles a day. The reading is 22 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bathurst St · Sheppard Ave W – Cocksfield Ave · 75 m | Mar 2016 · 7 days | 16,484 | — | — | — |
| Cocksfield Ave · Hove St – Bryant St · 349 m | Sep 2004 · 24 h | 732 | 35 km/h | 44 km/h | 49 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.
