Eglinton & Peveril

Traffic volume14-hour count · Jan 13, 2026

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The east leg carries the load — 13,551 westbound vehicles, or 57% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 324. Most cyclists arrived from the west (40 of 72). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,964 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 1,945 from 5:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

Peak hours: 1,964 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 1,945 from 5:45 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
