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 — 14-hour, Jun 17, 2025

The south leg carries the load — 11,140 northbound vehicles, or 44% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 1,088. Most cyclists arrived from the north (46 of 87). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,228 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 12% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (1,998). Heavy vehicles made up 3.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 15 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

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 Heathrow Dr between Heathrow Park Trl and Datchet Rd (111 m away) recorded an average of 43 km/h in its 24-hour count in August 2013; 85% of drivers were at or under 52 km/h. That segment carries about 1,600 vehicles a day. Chalkfarm Dr between Neames Cres and Marlington Cres measured slower: 25 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 33 km/h (Dec 2019). The reading is 13 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Heathrow Dr · Heathrow Park Trl – Datchet Rd · 111 mAug 2013 · 24 h1,55543 km/h52 km/h57 km/h

Jane St · Wilson Ave – William Cragg Dr · 391 mDec 2018 · 7 days16,381

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.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.

Thefts reported at this corner

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
