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 8, 2025 · weekend
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 9,647 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 54% of the total, against 295 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (48 of 82). Evening rush dominates here: 1,644 vehicles in the peak hour from 3:45 p.m., against 1,223 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.8% 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.
Peak hours: 1,223 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,644 from 3:45 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

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.
Speeds here, last measured in 2019
On Romfield Dr between Derrydown Rd and Villata Gdns, 217 m from the corner, a 3-day count in December 2019 put the average speed at 32 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 39 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 44 km/h or more. That segment carries about 900 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Finch Ave W · Keele St – Romfield Lane · 119 m | Nov 2011 · 3 days | 39,323 | — | — | — |
| Romfield Dr · Derrydown Rd – Villata Gdns · 217 m | Dec 2019 · 3 days | 930 | 32 km/h | 39 km/h | 44 km/h |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
