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 — 8-hour, Feb 1, 2022

Traffic is heaviest from the south: 6,176 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 46% of the total, against 658 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 2,015 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 1,681 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.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 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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

On Keele St between Walkway N of Gulliver and W of Keele and Flamborough Dr, 86 m from the corner, a 3-day count in February 2026 put the average speed at 46 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 54 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 61 km/h or more. That segment carries about 25,600 vehicles a day. Flamborough Dr between Lane W of Keele and N of Flamborough and Fairweather Rd measured slower: 42 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 49 km/h (Jun 2002).

Flamborough Dr · Lane W of Keele and N of Flamborough – Fairweather Rd · 130 mJun 2002 · 24 h2,16642 km/h49 km/h59 km/h

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.

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.
