Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · Oct 27, 2022
Traffic is heaviest from the east: 1,026 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 252 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 534 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 250 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. 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.
Peak hours: 250 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 534 from 4:00 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

A collision counts when its recorded location is within 65 m of the centreline node, intersection-related or not. KSI = killed or seriously injured, the basis of the danger rankings; records can lag a year or more, so the current year is outside the window. How collisions are counted.
How fast traffic moves here
On Highbourne Rd between Tranmer Ave and College View Ave, 133 m from the corner, a 3-day count in October 2021 put the average speed at 40 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 49 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 54 km/h or more.
