Traffic and safety

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

Traffic volume14-hour count · Jan 17, 2024

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 2,046 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 36% of the total, against 691 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 970 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 448 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Trucks and buses were 22.0% 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 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
