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). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Nov 9, 2025 (a weekend day)

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 6,420 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 30% of the total, against 4,526 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the west (51 of 120). Evening rush dominates here: 1,887 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:00 p.m., against 1,674 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Sunday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

On Dufferin St between Chandos Ave and Beaver Ave, 149 m from the corner, a 3-day count in September 2021 put the average speed at 46 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 56 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 62 km/h or more. That segment carries about 20,900 vehicles a day. Davenport Rd between Salem Ave N and Bartlett Ave N measured slower: 41 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 48 km/h (Jun 2022). The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Dufferin St (130 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.3% of the 90,770 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

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.
