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 most recent midblock count on Brimley Rd between Eglinton Ave E and No Frills Lane (53 m away, Nov 2013) recorded volume only — about 12,961 vehicles a day — with no speed data. At the school-zone speed sign on Bimbrok Rd (353 m away, 30 km/h limit), 16% of the 14,694 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a high share for a school zone.

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.
