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 west leg. The south leg carries the load — 22,738 northbound vehicles, or 46% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 6,395. Most cyclists arrived from the north (37 of 82). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 4,619 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 4,285 from 2:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.5% 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.

Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.

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 Bayview Ave between Lawrence Bayview N Ramp and Arjay Cres (372 m away) recorded an average of 50 km/h in its 3-day count in April 2026; 85% of drivers were at or under 61 km/h. That segment carries about 51,400 vehicles a day. Post Rd between Bayview Ave and Park Lane Crcl measured slower: 45 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 52 km/h (Mar 2019).

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Post Rd · Bayview Ave – Park Lane Crcl · 141 mMar 2019 · 3 days15,83545 km/h52 km/h57 km/h
Bayview Ave · Lawrence Bayview N Ramp – Arjay Cres · 372 mApr 2026 · 3 days51,44550 km/h61 km/h68 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.
