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 — 14-hour, Oct 15, 2025

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 2,680 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 59% of the total, against 69 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the east (71 of 139). Evening rush dominates here: 542 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 445 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

On Walder Ave between Eglinton Ave E and Roehampton Ave, 243 m from the corner, a 3-day count in June 2012 put the average speed at 28 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 38 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 43 km/h or more. That segment carries about 300 vehicles a day. Broadway Ave between Walder Ave and McBain Ave measured slower: 23 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 31 km/h (May 2024). The reading is 14 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Broadway Ave · Walder Ave – McBain Ave · 41 mMay 2024 · 3 days5,69323 km/h31 km/h35 km/h
Walder Ave · Eglinton Ave E – Roehampton Ave · 243 mJun 2012 · 3 days32828 km/h38 km/h43 km/h

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

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