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 · Nov 14, 2007

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 555 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 82% of the total, against 25 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the east (66 of 126). Evening rush dominates here: 107 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 90 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 19 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2007, 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.
