Foot traffic runs at about one pedestrian per 20 vehicles — this is a car-dominated crossing (median: one per 13).

Collisions edged down 10%, from 106 in 2016–2020 to 95 in 2021–2025. About one in 101 of those collisions involved a death or serious injury.

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 — 14-hour, Oct 24, 2024

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 18,921 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 1,916 from the west. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,122 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 3,086 from 6:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 23 months 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

On Ranee Ave between Ranee Park Trl and Dufferin St, 166 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in September 2017 put the average speed at 47 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 54 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 59 km/h or more. That segment carries about 9,300 vehicles a day. Bentworth Ave between Groton St and Paul David St measured slower: 34 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 42 km/h (Sep 2001). The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 3 speed humps slow traffic on Bentworth Avenue between Paul David St and Dufferin St.

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.

All police-reported collisions

Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025
