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 15, 2025 · weekend

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 8,555 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 418 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 1,760 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:45 p.m., against 1,114 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.

From the north418southbound · 0 bikes · 0.5% heavy

Peak hours: 1,114 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,760 from 2:45 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 worst year was 2016, with 8 collisions; 2025 recorded 4. 9 collisions (18%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 5 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 10% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 1 collision involved a pedestrian or cyclist (2%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 6 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 13, 2026.

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 Milady Rd between Grenadine Crt and Firenza Dr, 270 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in November 2021 put the average speed at 40 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 49 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 54 km/h or more. That segment carries about 500 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Pearldale Ave (224 m away, 30 km/h limit), 0.4% of the 43,177 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — almost none.
