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, Jul 3, 2025

The west leg carries the load — 10,335 eastbound vehicles, or 29% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 7,928. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 3,187 vehicles in the hour from 5:15 p.m., 23% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (2,598). Heavy vehicles made up 3.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 14 months 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 Dupont St between Skaters Lane and Hammond Pl (301 m away) recorded an average of 42 km/h in its 7-day count in June 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 49 km/h. That segment carries about 8,600 vehicles a day. Bathurst St between Olive Ave and Vermont Ave measured slower: 26 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 34 km/h (Jun 2000). The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Bathurst St · Olive Ave – Vermont Ave · 119 mJun 2000 · 6 days56726 km/h34 km/h39 km/h
Dupont St · Skaters Lane – Hammond Pl · 301 mJun 2022 · 7 days8,61542 km/h49 km/h54 km/h

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.
