Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 19, 2024

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 13,816 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 53% of the total, against 110 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the north (130 of 158). Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 2,821 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 27% above the afternoon peak from 3:15 p.m. (2,224). Heavy vehicles made up 2.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
