Coxwell & Glebeholme

Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 15, 2023

Traffic is heaviest from the south: 3,449 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 178 from the east. Evening rush dominates here: 1,115 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 938 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 938 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,115 from 4:45 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

A collision counts when its recorded location is within 65 m of the centreline node, intersection-related or not. KSI = killed or seriously injured, the basis of the danger rankings; records can lag a year or more, so the current year is outside the window. How collisions are counted.

How fast traffic moves here

On Glebeholme Blvd between Monarch Park Ave and Coxwell Ave, 148 m from the corner, a 3-day count in September 2018 put the average speed at 33 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 40 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 45 km/h or more. That segment carries about 900 vehicles a day. The reading is 8 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Glebeholme Blvd (117 m away, 30 km/h limit), 0.2% of the 23,181 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — almost none. 9 speed humps slow traffic on Glebeholme Boulevard between Greenwood Ave and Coxwell Ave, and 1 more calmed segment ends here.
