Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume8-hour count · Jan 13, 2010

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 85 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 37% of the total, against 60 from the south. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 38 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m., 19% above the afternoon peak from 4:45 p.m. (32). Trucks and buses were 17.4% 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 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 17 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2010, 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.
