Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. 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 — 8-hour, Nov 23, 2022
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 5,578 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 128 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 1,929 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 1,746 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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 Gerrard St E between Pickering St and Lane W of Dengate and N of Gerrard, 136 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in May 2023 put the average speed at 47 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 54 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 59 km/h or more. That segment carries about 17,700 vehicles a day. Hannaford St between Lyall Ave and Swanwick Ave measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 43 km/h (Nov 2002). 6 speed humps slow traffic on Hannaford Street between Gerrard St E and Kingston Rd (installed 2005).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gerrard St E · Pickering St – Lane W of Dengate and N of Gerrard · 136 m | May 2023 · 24 h | 17,741 | 47 km/h | 54 km/h | 59 km/h |

Traffic calming

6 speed humpsinstalled 2005
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.
All police-reported collisions
Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 cyclist was among those hurt. It happened in darkness. The most recent was on Sep 6, 2017.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |

| All KSI collisions | 1 | #955 of 1,505 |
| Fatal | 0 | |

| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 1 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 1 | latest Sep 6, 2017 |
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
Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
Two thefts from vehicles and six bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 50% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Jul 30, 2022.
