Traffic and safety

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

Traffic volume8-hour count · Jun 27, 2005

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 1,776 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 203 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 600 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 516 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 21 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2005, 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.

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.

How fast traffic moves here

On Beverley St between Stephanie St and Sullivan St, 46 m from the corner, a 3-day count in November 2021 put the average speed at 39 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 48 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 54 km/h or more. That segment carries about 8,100 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
