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, Feb 28, 2024

The south leg carries the load — 3,251 northbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 4. Most cyclists arrived from the south (66 of 163). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 620 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 17% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (531). Trucks and buses were 10.8% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 3 years 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 counter on Kintyre Ave between Hamilton St and Lane W of Broadview and N of Kintyre (58 m away) recorded an average of 15 km/h in its 24-hour count in August 2020; 85% of drivers were at or under 24 km/h. That segment carries about 400 vehicles a day. The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Broadview Ave (165 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.2% of the 208,455 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none. 2 speed humps slow traffic on Kintyre Avenue between Matilda St and Broadview Ave.

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.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

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

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.

Thefts reported at this corner

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
