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).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Jun 25, 2022 (a weekend day)

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 2,111 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 41% of the total, against 1,278 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the west (239 of 540). Evening rush dominates here: 742 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 520 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. 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 Greenwood Ave between Kerr Rd and Dundas St E, 299 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in June 2017 put the average speed at 45 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 53 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 58 km/h or more. That segment carries about 6,900 vehicles a day. The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Queen St E · Greenwood Ave – Vancouver Ave · 56 mJun 2013 · 24 h6,657
Greenwood Ave · Kerr Rd – Dundas St E · 299 mJun 2017 · 24 h6,93145 km/h53 km/h58 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

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
