Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume8-hour count · Sep 29, 2022

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 786 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 137 from the east. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 252 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 256 from 4:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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.
