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 — 8-hour, Mar 29, 2017

The south leg carries the load — 9,026 northbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 2. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,656 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,577 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 9 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2017, 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.

Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.

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 Stafford Rd and Kingsbridge Crt (36 m away) recorded an average of 48 km/h in its 24-hour count in November 2004; 85% of drivers were at or under 62 km/h. That segment carries about 16,700 vehicles a day. Yorkview Dr between Stafford Park Trl and Fleetwell Crt measured slower: 39 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 48 km/h (Mar 2011). The reading is 22 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Finch Ave W (341 m away, 50 km/h limit), 3.1% of the 66,192 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — a small minority.

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

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

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

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025

Toronto Police place 30 thefts from vehicles and three bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 5.5× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 5 in 2023–2025, about 1.7 a year, against 4.0 a year before that. 47% of the vehicle thefts were from apartment-building parking.
