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 · Sep 11, 2024

Traffic is heaviest from the south: 18,972 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 472 from the east. Most cyclists arrived from the south (114 of 147). Evening rush dominates here: 3,272 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 2,928 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. 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 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
