Traffic and safety

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

Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 5, 2024

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 9,117 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 45% of the total, against 29 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (86 of 215). Evening rush dominates here: 2,014 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 1,727 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
