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, Oct 27, 2021

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 825 northbound vehicles, or 47% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 388. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 266 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 287 from 4:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, 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.

Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.

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 Hove St between Cocksfield Ave and Codsell Ave (111 m away) recorded an average of 35 km/h in its 3-day count in October 2021; 85% of drivers were at or under 44 km/h. That segment carries about 2,400 vehicles a day. Cocksfield Ave between Bryant St and Casino Crt measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 43 km/h (Oct 2021). The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Hove St · Cocksfield Ave – Codsell Ave · 111 mOct 2021 · 3 days2,38935 km/h44 km/h49 km/h
Cocksfield Ave · Bryant St – Casino Crt · 213 mOct 2021 · 3 days52435 km/h43 km/h48 km/h

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.

Killed or seriously injured

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

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 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.
