Traffic and safety

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

Traffic volume8-hour count · May 2, 2018

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 739 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 36% of the total, against 318 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 401 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 320 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 9 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2018, 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.

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 Glengrove Ave between Glen Rush Blvd and Alexandra Wood, 53 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in April 2014 put the average speed at 37 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 45 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 52 km/h or more. That segment carries about 400 vehicles a day. The reading is 12 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Glen Rush Blvd between Frontenac Ave and Caribou Rd measured slower: 32 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 38 km/h (May 2019) — a much more recent reading than the one above.
