The latest City count averages about 1,980 vehicles an hour over its 8-hour span, 1.72× the median counted intersection. Foot traffic runs at about one pedestrian per 50 vehicles — this is a car-dominated crossing (median: one per 13). That comes with about 5.9 reported collisions a year, 2016–2025 — roughly the median for a Toronto intersection. Collisions rose 27%, from 26 in 2016–2020 to 33 in 2021–2025. Just one of those 59 collisions left someone killed or seriously injured.

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 — 8-hour, Feb 15, 2017

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 8,159 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 85 from the west. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,411 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,246 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 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.

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

On Dufferin St between Wenderly Dr and Claver Ave, 280 m from the corner, a 3-day count in January 2026 put the average speed at 40 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 52 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 57 km/h or more. That segment carries about 29,100 vehicles a day. Glengrove Ave between Danesbury Ave and Capitol Ave measured slower: 40 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 48 km/h (Dec 2017).

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Dufferin St · Wenderly Dr – Claver Ave · 280 mJan 2026 · 3 days29,08740 km/h52 km/h57 km/h
Glengrove Ave · Danesbury Ave – Capitol Ave · 389 mDec 2017 · 3 days2,60140 km/h48 km/h53 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.
