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). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Oct 5, 2023

Traffic is heaviest from the west: 3,337 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 37% of the total, against 910 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 839 vehicles in the peak hour from 6:15 p.m., against 746 in the morning peak from 9:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

The City's most recent midblock count on Fort York Blvd between Bathurst St and Iannuzzi St (272 m away, Dec 2011) recorded volume only — about 5,719 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Fort York Blvd · Bathurst St – Iannuzzi St · 272 mDec 2011 · 3 days5,719

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.
