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 22, 2025 · weekend
The west leg carries the load — 7,383 eastbound vehicles, or 47% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 1,042. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,455 vehicles in the hour from 2:15 p.m., 36% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (1,071). Heavy vehicles made up 4.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.
Peak hours: 1,071 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,455 from 2:15 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m
The peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 26 collisions. 12% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 57 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 32% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 8% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 10 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jul 11, 2026.
Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 2 pedestrians were among those hurt. One of the two happened in darkness. The most recent was on Apr 13, 2024. Going back to 2006, the total is 3.

A collision counts when its recorded location is within 65 m of the centreline node, intersection-related or not. KSI = killed or seriously injured, the basis of the danger rankings; records can lag a year or more, so the current year is outside the window. How collisions are counted.
How fast traffic moves here
The City's counter on Cedar Dr between Eglinton Ave E and Gatesview Ave (162 m away) recorded an average of 40 km/h in its 3-day count in October 2021; 85% of drivers were at or under 52 km/h. That segment carries about 500 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
