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). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.
Traffic volume
The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Sep 30, 2025
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 8,032 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 548 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the east (152 of 303). Evening rush dominates here: 1,698 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:15 p.m., against 1,461 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). 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.
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 Kingston Rd between Victoria Park Ave and Blantyre Ave, 122 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in October 2022 put the average speed at 42 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 54 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 60 km/h or more. That segment carries about 25,600 vehicles a day. Blantyre Ave between Kingston Rd and Meadow Ave measured slower: 32 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Mar 2020). The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Blantyre Ave (371 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.7% of the 32,965 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none. 5 speed humps slow traffic on Blantyre Avenue between Windsor Ave and Kingston 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
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.
