Birchmount Rd & L'Amoreaux Sports Complex Trl (id: 30053308)

Traffic volume8-hour count · Oct 13, 2015

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 5,083 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 48% of the total, against 594 from the west. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 2,006 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 29% above the afternoon peak from 4:45 p.m. (1,556). Trucks and buses were 10.2% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 11 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2015, 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.

Peak hours: 2,006 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,556 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).

Traffic on these streets

The City's most recent midblock count on Birchmount Rd between Brookmill Blvd and L'amoreaux Sports Complex Trl (61 m away, Apr 2015) recorded volume only — about 22,296 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

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.
