Hour by hour, the 8-hour count works out to close to 740 vehicles, 64% of the median counted intersection. There is roughly one pedestrian for every 3 vehicles, a higher share of people on foot than the typical counted intersection (one per 13). Cyclists were 5.4% of vehicle volume, about 7.0× the typical share. That comes with about 4.6 reported collisions a year, 2016–2025 — roughly the median for a Toronto intersection. Collisions fell 41%, from 29 in 2016–2020 to 17 in 2021–2025. Just one of those 46 collisions left someone killed or seriously injured.

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, Jun 20, 2018

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The east leg carries the load — 3,251 westbound vehicles, or 55% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 1,060. Morning rush is the busier period: 893 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:30 a.m., compared with 763 from 4:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 8 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.

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 Blue Jays Way between Front St W and Lane S of Wellington and E of Blue Jays Way (248 m away) recorded an average of 32 km/h in its 7-day count in June 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 42 km/h. That segment carries about 8,200 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Blue Jays Way · Front St W – Lane S of Wellington and E of Blue Jays Way · 248 mJun 2022 · 7 days8,18232 km/h42 km/h48 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.
