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 — 14-hour, Oct 8, 2025
The south leg carries the load — 6,309 northbound vehicles, or 29% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 4,674. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,970 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 15% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,719). Heavy vehicles made up 2.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.
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 Mortimer Ave between Durant Ave and Coxwell Ave (84 m away) recorded an average of 35 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2023; 85% of drivers were at or under 44 km/h. That segment carries about 11,700 vehicles a day. At the school-zone speed sign on Coxwell Ave (85 m away, 40 km/h limit), 7.9% of the 139,151 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a share the City would treat as a speeding problem.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Coxwell Ave · Mortimer Ave – Barker Ave · 78 m | Dec 2011 · 3 days | 7,776 | — | — | — |
| Mortimer Ave · Durant Ave – Coxwell Ave · 84 m | Nov 2023 · 3 days | 11,714 | 35 km/h | 44 km/h | 48 km/h |
School-zone speed sign 85 m
Coxwell Ave (southbound), 845 Coxwell Avenue · 139,151 vehicles logged in July 2026 · runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.
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.
