Traffic volume

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

The north leg carries the load — 14,469 southbound vehicles, or 54% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 71. Most cyclists arrived from the north (323 of 522). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,155 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,227 from 3:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.0% 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 Helena Ave between Lane W of Vaughan and S of Hocken and Wychwood Ave (260 m away) recorded an average of 34 km/h in its 3-day count in July 2006; 85% of drivers were at or under 44 km/h. That segment carries about 600 vehicles a day. The reading is 20 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 4 speed humps slow traffic on Helena Avenue between Wychwood Ave and Bathurst St.

Traffic calming

    4 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.
