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, Dec 15, 2021

The south leg carries the load — 500 northbound vehicles, or 91% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 48. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 92 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 42% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (65). Heavy vehicles made up 2.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, 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

The City's counter on Cavell Ave between Albert Ave and Manchester Park Trl (127 m away) recorded an average of 33 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2021; 85% of drivers were at or under 40 km/h. That segment carries about 1,200 vehicles a day. Burlington St between Victoria St and Skelton St measured slower: 29 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 35 km/h (Nov 2021). The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 10 speed humps slow traffic on Cavell Avenue between Royal York Rd and Burlington St.

Traffic calming

    10 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.

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 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.
