The latest City count averages about 1,160 vehicles an hour over its 14-hour span, about the citywide median. There is roughly one pedestrian for every 5 vehicles, a higher share of people on foot than the typical counted intersection (one per 13). Cyclists were 3.6% of vehicle volume, about 4.6× the typical share. That comes with about 5.2 reported collisions a year, 2016–2025 — 3.2 per 10,000 counted vehicles, below the median rate of 5.0. Collisions fell 27%, from 30 in 2016–2020 to 22 in 2021–2025. Just one of those 52 collisions left someone killed or seriously injured.

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 — 14-hour, Oct 23, 2024

The west leg carries the load — 7,807 eastbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 491. Most cyclists arrived from the west (291 of 578). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,250 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,323 from 6:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 23 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

The City's counter on Grenview Blvd S between Meadowvale Dr and Bermuda Ave (152 m away) recorded an average of 32 km/h in its 3-day count in March 2025; 85% of drivers were at or under 40 km/h. That segment carries about 700 vehicles a day.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Grenview Blvd S · Meadowvale Dr – Bermuda Ave · 152 mMar 2025 · 3 days74232 km/h40 km/h45 km/h
Bloor St W · Humbervale Blvd – Royal York Rd · 256 mSep 2019 · 7 days14,401

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.
