Black Creek N Jane St Ramp & Jane St

Traffic volume8-hour count · Apr 14, 2018 · weekend

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 8,925 northbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 1,580. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,231 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,287 from 2:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 9 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2018, 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: 2,231 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,287 from 2:00 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m

Toronto Police recorded no collisions of any severity within 65 m of this intersection in 2016–2025.

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

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.

Traffic on these streets

The City's most recent midblock count on Jane St between Gordon Mackay Rd and Downsview Ave (371 m away, Jun 2022) recorded volume only — about 25,413 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.
