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, Oct 1, 2020

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 736 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 58% of the total, against 525 from the east. Most cyclists arrived from the north (98 of 232). Evening rush dominates here: 204 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 186 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Trucks and buses were 10.9% 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 6 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2020, 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.

How fast traffic moves here

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

On Carlaw Ave between Westwood Ave and Floyd Ave, 353 m from the corner, a 3-day count in April 2024 put the average speed at 26 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 33 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 36 km/h or more. That segment carries about 600 vehicles a day. 2 speed humps slow traffic on Fulton Avenue between Carlaw Ave and Pape Ave, and 1 more calmed segment ends here.

Traffic calming

    2 speed humps
  • Fulton Avenue · Broadview Ave – Carlaw Ave
    9 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.

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.

Thefts reported at this corner

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

Three thefts from vehicles and two bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft.
