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).

The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,238 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 62% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (1,381). Heavy vehicles made up 2.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%).

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 Progress Ave between Hwy 401 Collectors E and Corporate Dr (158 m away, Mar 2015) recorded volume only — about 23,359 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Progress Ave · Hwy 401 Collectors E – Corporate Dr · 158 mMar 2015 · 3 days23,359

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.
