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).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Aug 14, 2013

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 380 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 46% of the total, against 31 from the west. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 182 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m., 63% above the afternoon peak from 4:00 p.m. (112). Trucks and buses were 9.3% 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 13 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

On Tilson Rd between Forman Ave and Boyton Rd, 77 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in November 2017 put the average speed at 31 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 200 vehicles a day. Forman Ave between Davisville Ave and Millwood Rd measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Jun 2019). The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Tilson Rd · Forman Ave – Boyton Rd · 77 mNov 2017 · 24 h20931 km/h39 km/h44 km/h
Forman Ave · Davisville Ave – Millwood Rd · 323 mJun 2019 · 3 days1,41533 km/h39 km/h43 km/h

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.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.

Thefts reported at this corner
