Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 7, 2023
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 4,571 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 43% of the total, against 147 from the north. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 1,342 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 39% above the afternoon peak from 3:15 p.m. (966). Heavy vehicles made up 1.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 1,342 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 966 from 3:15 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

How fast traffic moves here
On Duncan Mill Rd between Lesmill Rd and Valleybrook Dr, 220 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in March 2013 put the average speed at 44 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 7,100 vehicles a day. The reading is 13 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

At the school-zone speed sign on Moatfield Dr (201 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.0% of the 5,905 vehicles logged in June 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.
