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 · Apr 6, 2022

Traffic is heaviest from the west: 522 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 53% of the total, against 65 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 209 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 120 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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.

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 Donside Dr between Pitt Ave and Maybourne Ave, 42 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in May 2011 put the average speed at 31 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 39 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 44 km/h or more. That segment carries about 400 vehicles a day. The reading is 15 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Maybourne Ave between Donside Dr and Conroy Ave measured slower: 27 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 34 km/h (Mar 2026) — a much more recent reading than the one above.
