Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume8-hour count · Feb 6, 2018

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 137 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 48% of the total, against 54 from the north. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 43 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 42 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles were a negligible share of traffic (0.3%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 9 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2018, 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.
