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, Nov 1, 2006

The north leg carries the load — 929 southbound vehicles, or 35% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 470. Morning rush is the busier period: 659 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:00 a.m., compared with 535 from 4:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles were a negligible share of traffic (0.1%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 20 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2006, 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

The City's counter on Balliol St between Cleveland St and Lane W of Bayview and S of Davisville (137 m away) recorded an average of 32 km/h in its 3-day count in June 2002; 85% of drivers were at or under 42 km/h. That segment carries about 1,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 24 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 2 speed humps slow traffic on Balliol Street between Mount Pleasant Rd and Cleveland St.

Traffic calming

  • Balliol Street · Mount Pleasant Rd – Cleveland St
    2 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

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.

Thefts reported at this corner

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