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 — 14-hour, Nov 12, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 765 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 55% of the total, against 12 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 178 vehicles in the peak hour from 3:15 p.m., against 127 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 22 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

On Hilldale Rd between Garrow Ave and Humber Blvd, 232 m from the corner, a 3-day count in January 2020 put the average speed at 32 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 38 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 43 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,400 vehicles a day. Orman Ave between Symes Rd and Hilldale Rd measured slower: 22 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 28 km/h (Feb 2001). The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on McCormack St (217 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.1% of the 12,968 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

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.

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.
