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 · Mar 30, 2022
Traffic is heaviest from the east: 274 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 63% of the total, against 162 from the south. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 93 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 27% above the afternoon peak from 4:00 p.m. (73). Heavy vehicles made up 3.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 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: 93 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 73 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 Humewood Dr between Lane S of Vaughan and W of Humewood and Vaughan Rd, 164 m from the corner, a 2-day count in September 2004 put the average speed at 38 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 46 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 52 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 22 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Heathdale Rd between Pinewood Ave and Humewood Dr measured slower: 34 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 42 km/h (Jun 2023) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Vaughan Rd (153 m away, 30 km/h limit), 43% of the 170,911 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a high share for a school zone. 8 speed humps slow traffic on Heathdale Road between Raglan Ave and Humewood Dr (installed 2025).
