Traffic volume14-hour count · Dec 10, 2023 · weekend

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The south leg carries the load — 6,873 northbound vehicles, or 40% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 3,656. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,703 vehicles in the hour from 4:00 p.m., 100% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (1,351). Heavy vehicles made up 1.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Sunday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,351 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,703 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).

Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m

Toronto Police recorded no collisions of any severity within 65 m of this intersection in 2016–2025.

Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 2 pedestrians were among those hurt. One of the two happened in darkness. The most recent was on Jan 27, 2020. Going back to 2006, the total is 3.

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.

Traffic on these streets

The City's most recent midblock count on Morningside Ave between The Meadoway and Hwy 401 Collectors E (0 m away, Dec 2011) recorded volume only — about 10,064 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
