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, Apr 13, 2004

The north leg carries the load — 5,277 southbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 279. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,668 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 23% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (1,355). Heavy vehicles made up 3.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 22 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2004, 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 Church St between Collier St and Yonge St (75 m away) recorded an average of 38 km/h in its 24-hour count in June 2023; 85% of drivers were at or under 47 km/h. That segment carries about 15,100 vehicles a day. Collier St between Park Rd and Lane E of Park Rd and N of Church measured slower: 30 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 38 km/h (Nov 2001).

Collier St · Park Rd – Lane E of Park Rd and N of Church · 122 mNov 2001 · 3 days3,50630 km/h38 km/h42 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.
