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 — 8-hour, Apr 5, 2022

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The north leg carries the load — 770 southbound vehicles, or 44% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 279. Morning rush is the busier period: 495 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:15 a.m., compared with 230 from 2:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. 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.

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 Heather Rd between Lane W of Shilton and N of Heather Rd and Shilton Rd (379 m away) recorded an average of 39 km/h in its 3-day count in April 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 47 km/h. That segment carries about 1,100 vehicles a day. Glen Watford Dr between Heather Rd and Dennett Dr measured slower: 34 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 42 km/h (Mar 2023). The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Heather Rd (246 m away, 40 km/h limit), 4.1% of the 18,019 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority.

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.

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.
