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 · Oct 7, 2021

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 722 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 30 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 307 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 243 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, 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.

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

On Fairholme Ave between Dell Park Trl and Walkway E of Dalemount and N of Fairholme, 59 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in November 2012 put the average speed at 45 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 54 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 60 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,400 vehicles a day. The reading is 14 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Dalemount Ave between Shelborne Ave and Madoc Dr measured slower: 29 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Apr 2025) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Glenmount Ave (232 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.0% of the 75,993 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.
