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, Feb 23, 2017

The south leg carries the load — 2,761 northbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 201. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 912 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 865 from 4:15 p.m. Trucks and buses were 13.7% 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 10 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2017, 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.

Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.

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 Jones Ave between Boultbee Ave and Hunter St (111 m away) recorded an average of 48 km/h in its 24-hour count in June 2017; 85% of drivers were at or under 55 km/h. That segment carries about 8,900 vehicles a day. Boultbee Ave between Planning Boundary and Blake St measured slower: 21 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 28 km/h (Sep 2018). The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Jones Ave (84 m away, 30 km/h limit), 63% of the 129,903 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a high share for a school zone.

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.
