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 19, 2019

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 6,247 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 519 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 2,105 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 1,710 in the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. Trucks and buses were 12.8% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2019, 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.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

On Eglinton Ave W between Guestville Ave and Pearen St, 24 m from the corner, a 2-day count in September 2019 put the average speed at 49 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 61 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 67 km/h or more. That segment carries about 18,100 vehicles a day. Guestville Ave between Dennis Ave and Astoria Ave measured slower: 32 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 41 km/h (Apr 2022). The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Guestville Ave (265 m away, 30 km/h limit), 4.3% of the 45,297 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a small minority. 4 speed humps slow traffic on Guestville Avenue between Eglinton Ave W and Lambton Ave.

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.
