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). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Mar 28, 2023

The north leg carries the load — 6,222 southbound vehicles, or 39% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 652. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,439 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 13% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (2,154). Trucks and buses were 5.9% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since. 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 counter on Islington Ave between Whitfield Ave and Millwick Dr (39 m away) recorded an average of 49 km/h in its 3-day count in June 2023; 85% of drivers were at or under 59 km/h. That segment carries about 18,100 vehicles a day.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Islington Ave · Whitfield Ave – Millwick Dr · 39 mJun 2023 · 3 days18,05549 km/h59 km/h65 km/h
Millwick Dr · Milvan Dr – Plunkett Rd · 312 mFeb 2002 · 24 h8,674

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.
