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 · Dec 15, 2021

Traffic is heaviest from the south: 6,483 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 43% of the total, against 1,043 from the east. Evening rush dominates here: 2,263 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 1,527 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, 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: 1,527 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,263 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).

Speeds here, last measured in 2018

On Broadoaks Dr between Keele St and Derrydown Rd, 89 m from the corner, a 3-day count in November 2018 put the average speed at 37 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 45 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 50 km/h or more.
