Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets, and the red-light camera
Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 19, 2024
Traffic is heaviest from the north: 21,157 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 52% of the total, against 1,173 from the east. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,643 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 3,441 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.6% 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.
Peak hours: 3,643 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 3,441 from 4:45 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m
The worst year was 2017, with 25 collisions; 2025 recorded 9. 20 collisions (16%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 9 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 7% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 4 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (3%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 7 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 1, 2026.
No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Jun 8, 2007.

A collision counts when its recorded location is within 65 m of the centreline node, intersection-related or not. KSI = killed or seriously injured, the basis of the danger rankings; records can lag a year or more, so the current year is outside the window. How collisions are counted.
Speeds here, last measured in 2011
On Bayview Ave between Belle Geste Lane and Forest Heights Blvd, 307 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in January 2001 put the average speed at 61 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 69 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 74 km/h or more. That segment carries about 31,600 vehicles a day. The reading is 25 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Fifeshire Rd between Chieftain Cres and Carluke Cres measured slower: 41 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 51 km/h (Aug 2011) — a much more recent reading than the one above.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bayview Ave · Belle Geste Lane – Forest Heights Blvd · 307 m | Jan 2001 · 24 h | 31,593 | 61 km/h | 69 km/h | 74 km/h |
| Fifeshire Rd · Chieftain Cres – Carluke Cres · 313 m | Aug 2011 · 24 h | 3,313 | 41 km/h | 51 km/h | 57 km/h |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
