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 — 14-hour, Nov 19, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The south leg carries the load — 19,536 northbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 530. Most cyclists arrived from the south (40 of 71). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,328 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 3,208 from 2:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 22 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 Dawlish Ave between Daneswood Rd and Bayview Ave (93 m away) recorded an average of 36 km/h in its 3-day count in January 2023; 85% of drivers were at or under 44 km/h. That segment carries about 1,100 vehicles a day.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Bayview Ave · Hargrave Lane – Valleyanna Dr · 68 mMay 2013 · 3 days24,406
Dawlish Ave · Daneswood Rd – Bayview Ave · 93 mJan 2023 · 3 days1,08536 km/h44 km/h53 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.

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.
