Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Oct 7, 2025
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 741 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 35% of the total, against 227 from the north. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 276 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m., 37% above the afternoon peak from 4:45 p.m. (202). Trucks and buses were 9.3% 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 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 13 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 276 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 202 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).
