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

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 1,443 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 52% of the total, against 264 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (97 of 187). Evening rush dominates here: 472 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 398 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Trucks and buses were 12.1% 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 Oak Park Ave between Wallington Ave and Everett Park Trl, 231 m from the corner, a 2-day count in March 2020 put the average speed at 38 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 45 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 50 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,000 vehicles a day. Cosburn Ave between Haldon Ave and Westlake Ave measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 42 km/h (Apr 2024). The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 1 speed hump slow traffic on Oak Park Avenue between Lumsden Ave and Cosburn Ave.

Traffic calming

    1 speed hump

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.

No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.
