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, Mar 24, 2026

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 14,669 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 810 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the south (40 of 64). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,400 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,507 from 5:15 p.m. Trucks and buses were 5.1% 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. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

On Gracefield Ave between Bryn Rd and Del Ria Dr, 376 m from the corner, a 2-day count in April 2019 put the average speed at 34 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 42 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 47 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,700 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 7 speed humps slow traffic on Gracefield Avenue between Keele St and Culford Rd.

Traffic calming

  • Gracefield Avenue · Keele St – Culford Rd
    7 speed humps

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.
