Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets, and the red-light camera

Traffic volume14-hour count · Oct 18, 2025 · weekend

Traffic is heaviest from the west: 9,302 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 36% of the total, against 4,313 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 2,360 vehicles in the peak hour from 3:00 p.m., against 1,857 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
