Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets, and the red-light camera

Traffic volume8-hour count · Dec 3, 2019

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 8,836 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 380 from the north. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 2,681 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 12% above the afternoon peak from 5:00 p.m. (2,390). Trucks and buses were 8.7% 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 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2019, 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.

Finch & Trudy scores 56 out of 100 on this site's within-a-walk measure — #1,996 of 5,672 Toronto intersections; the city median is 48.
