Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. 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). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Mar 11, 2013

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 9,335 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 48% of the total, against 543 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 3,054 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 2,337 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Trucks and buses were 11.5% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 14 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2013, 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.

Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

The City's most recent midblock count on Eglinton Ave E between Warden Ave and Prudham Gt (117 m away, Mar 2013) recorded volume only — about 42,921 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Eglinton Ave E · Warden Ave – Prudham Gt · 117 mMar 2013 · 3 days42,921

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.
