Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. 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). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Nov 17, 1994

Traffic is spread evenly across the approaches, from 4,589 vehicles entering from the north to 5,428 from the south. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,635 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 35% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (1,215). Heavy vehicles made up 4.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 32 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 1994, 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.

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 most recent midblock count on Bathurst St between Lane S of Dundas and W of Bathurst and Dundas St W (53 m away, May 2015) recorded volume only — about 10,799 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Bathurst St · Lane S of Dundas and W of Bathurst – Dundas St W · 53 mMay 2015 · 7 days10,799

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.
