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 22, 2017

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 1,268 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 5 from the east. Most cyclists arrived from the north (62 of 123). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 405 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 387 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 10 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2017, 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 Humbert St between Fennings St and Lane E of Dovercourt and S of Humbert, 77 m from the corner, a 2-day count in February 2020 put the average speed at 25 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 33 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 37 km/h or more. That segment carries about 400 vehicles a day. The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Dovercourt Rd between Lane S of Queen and E of Lisgar and Queen St W measured slower: 16 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 25 km/h (Nov 2022).

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
