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).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Oct 21, 2025

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The north leg carries the load — 13,929 southbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 2,051. Most cyclists arrived from the north (61 of 122). Morning rush is the busier period: 2,689 vehicles in the peak hour from 7:45 a.m., compared with 2,153 from 5:30 p.m. Trucks and buses were 5.0% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. 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 Rochefort Dr between Ferrand Dr and Ferrand Drive Park Trl (338 m away) recorded an average of 40 km/h in its 3-day count in October 2025; 85% of drivers were at or under 48 km/h. That segment carries about 2,800 vehicles a day.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Don Mills Rd · Gateway Blvd – St Dennis Dr · 170 mMay 2010 · 3 days1,254
Rochefort Dr · Ferrand Dr – Ferrand Drive Park Trl · 338 mOct 2025 · 3 days2,80840 km/h48 km/h54 km/h

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.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.

Thefts reported at this corner

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
