Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Nov 23, 2022

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The west leg carries the load — 5,862 eastbound vehicles, or 53% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 125. Most cyclists arrived from the east (35 of 69). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,953 vehicles in the hour from 4:15 p.m., 13% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (1,736). Heavy vehicles made up 4.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. 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.

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 Kingston Rd between Queensbury Ave and Audrey Ave (43 m away) recorded an average of 53 km/h in its 24-hour count in March 2019; 85% of drivers were at or under 64 km/h. That segment carries about 24,700 vehicles a day. Audrey Ave between Kingston Rd and Dodge Rd measured slower: 31 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 41 km/h (Nov 2022). The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 5 speed humps slow traffic on Audrey Avenue between Kingston Rd and Dodge Rd.

Traffic calming

    5 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.

Killed or seriously injured

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

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 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.

Thefts reported at this corner

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
