Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · May 8, 2006
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 5,995 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 434 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the east (76 of 121). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,083 vehicles in the hour from 7:30 a.m. and 2,064 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 21 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2006, 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.
Peak hours: 2,083 vehicles in the hour from 7:30 a.m. and 2,064 from 5:00 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.
How fast traffic moves here
On Kingston Rd between Victoria Park Ave and Blantyre Ave, 218 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. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Courcelette Rd between Windsor Ave and Kingston Rd measured slower: 30 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 36 km/h (Mar 2022). At the school-zone speed sign on Blantyre Ave (367 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.6% of the 33,621 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.
