Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume8-hour count · Jun 25, 2019

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 8,014 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 52% of the total, against 55 from the east. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,291 vehicles in the hour from 7:30 a.m. and 2,267 from 5:00 p.m. Trucks and buses were 11.3% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2019, 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.

Peak hours: 2,291 vehicles in the hour from 7:30 a.m. and 2,267 from 5:00 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

All KSI since 20062latest Sep 28, 2018

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.

Speeds here, last measured in 2010

On Nickle St between Jane St and Sedan Ave, 110 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in June 2010 put the average speed at 24 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 35 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 40 km/h or more. That segment carries about 200 vehicles a day. The reading is 16 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

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.
