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, Sep 5, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 9,625 northbound vehicles, or 47% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 1,409. Most cyclists arrived from the south (50 of 85). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,820 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,809 from 3:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

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 Keywest Ave between Fairbank Memorial Park Trl and Dufferin St (75 m away) recorded an average of 35 km/h in its 24-hour count in March 2025; 85% of drivers were at or under 42 km/h. That segment carries about 3,000 vehicles a day. Dufferin St between Keywest Ave and Hunter Ave measured slower: 31 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 36 km/h (Jun 2024).

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Keywest Ave · Fairbank Memorial Park Trl – Dufferin St · 75 mMar 2025 · 24 h3,04435 km/h42 km/h47 km/h
Dufferin St · Keywest Ave – Hunter Ave · 110 mJun 2024 · 24 h27,03931 km/h36 km/h39 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

Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Sep 26, 2010.

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

Toronto Police place four thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft.
