Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume14-hour count · Oct 14, 2023 · weekend

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 12,533 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 1,475 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 2,291 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 1,721 in the morning peak from 9:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,721 vehicles in the hour from 9:15 a.m. and 2,291 from 4:30 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

A collision counts when its recorded location is within 65 m of the centreline node, intersection-related or not. KSI = killed or seriously injured, the basis of the danger rankings; records can lag a year or more, so the current year is outside the window. How collisions are counted.

Speeds here, last measured in 2017

On Collinsgrove Rd between 25 Collinsgrove Rd and 41 Collinsgrove Rd, 238 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in October 2017 put the average speed at 44 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 53 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 59 km/h or more.
