Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Apr 15, 2025

Traffic is heaviest from the west: 12,098 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 58 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the east (53 of 120). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,501 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,344 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 17 months 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

On Grand Ave between Dalesford Rd and Brussels St, 217 m from the corner, a 2-day count in November 2011 put the average speed at 45 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 54 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 62 km/h or more. That segment carries about 4,300 vehicles a day. The reading is 15 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
The Queensway · Woodford Park Rd – Grand Ave · 23 mSep 2012 · 3 days16,071
Grand Ave · Dalesford Rd – Brussels St · 217 mNov 2011 · 2 days4,25445 km/h54 km/h62 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
