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).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Jul 3, 2025

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 13,795 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 46% of the total, against 3,275 from the east. Most cyclists arrived from the south (42 of 49). Evening rush dominates here: 2,690 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 1,915 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Trucks and buses were 8.1% 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 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 14 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

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 Omni Dr and Triton Rd (19 m away, Nov 2013) recorded volume only — about 16,368 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Brimley Rd · Omni Dr – Triton Rd · 19 mNov 2013 · 3 days16,368
Triton Rd · Brimley Rd – Borough Dr · 54 mJun 2007 · 3 days10,568

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.

No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.
