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, Apr 19, 2022

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 776 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 53% of the total, against 87 from the east. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 268 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 263 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 4 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.

How fast traffic moves here

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

On Kingslake Rd between Gleneagle Cres and Koven Pl, 324 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2024 put the average speed at 44 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 50 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 54 km/h or more. That segment carries about 3,600 vehicles a day.

Kingslake Rd · Gleneagle Cres – Koven Pl · 324 mMay 2024 · 3 days3,57444 km/h50 km/h54 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.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.

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.
