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, Mar 31, 2022
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 3,962 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 55% of the total, against 174 from the east. Most cyclists arrived from the north (31 of 63). Evening rush dominates here: 1,344 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 797 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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
On Torrens Ave between Broadview Ave and Lane W of Pape and N of Torrens, 212 m from the corner, a 2-day count in May 2003 put the average speed at 37 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 48 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 54 km/h or more. That segment carries about 600 vehicles a day. Broadview Ave between Don Valley Dr and Woodville Ave measured slower: 40 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 47 km/h (Sep 2025). The reading is 23 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 11 speed humps slow traffic on Torrens Avenue between Broadview Ave and Donlands Ave.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Broadview Ave · Don Valley Dr – Woodville Ave · 65 m | Sep 2025 · 3 days | 10,947 | 40 km/h | 47 km/h | 50 km/h |
| Torrens Ave · Broadview Ave – Lane W of Pape and N of Torrens · 212 m | May 2003 · 2 days | 624 | 37 km/h | 48 km/h | 54 km/h |
Traffic calming
- Torrens Avenue · Broadview Ave – Donlands Ave
11 speed humps
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.
All police-reported collisions

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.
