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).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Feb 15, 2022

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The west leg carries the load — 3,095 eastbound vehicles, or 39% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 2,374. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,412 vehicles in the hour from 4:00 p.m., 28% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (1,102). Heavy vehicles made up 3.6% 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 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 most recent midblock count on Meadowvale Rd between Meadowvale Rd S and Meadowvale Rd N (91 m away, Apr 2013) recorded volume only — about 10,424 vehicles a day — with no speed data. At the school-zone speed sign on Meadowvale Rd - C (337 m away, 50 km/h limit), 13% of the 241,149 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — a share the City would treat as a speeding problem.

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.
