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 — 8-hour, May 23, 2019
The west leg carries the load — 4,865 eastbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 130. Most cyclists arrived from the west (63 of 155). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,358 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,357 from 4:30 p.m. Trucks and buses were 6.7% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2019, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
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 Moore Ave between Pottery Rd and Mallory Cres (34 m away) recorded an average of 41 km/h in its 3-day count in September 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 48 km/h. That segment carries about 12,100 vehicles a day. Bessborough Dr between Moore Ave and Sutherland Dr measured slower: 39 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 48 km/h (Jun 2003). The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 3 speed humps slow traffic on Bessborough Drive between Moore Ave and Sutherland Dr.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Moore Ave · Pottery Rd – Mallory Cres · 34 m | Sep 2022 · 3 days | 12,128 | 41 km/h | 48 km/h | 53 km/h |
| Bessborough Dr · Moore Ave – Sutherland Dr · 119 m | Jun 2003 · 3 days | 1,394 | 39 km/h | 48 km/h | 53 km/h |
Traffic calming
- Bessborough Drive · Moore Ave – Sutherland Dr
3 speed humps
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.
Thefts reported at this corner
Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
Toronto Police place four thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Reported | 2023–2025 | Since Jan 2026 | Most often from |

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through May 20, 2022. Police offset every occurrence to the nearest intersection before publishing, so these are thefts on the streets and premises around this node, not necessarily at the corner itself.
