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).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Jun 19, 2024

The east leg carries the load — 17,752 westbound vehicles, or 44% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 608. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 3,675 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 15% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (3,206). Heavy vehicles made up 4.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

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 most recent midblock count on Kingston Rd between Guildwood Pkwy and Dale Ave (37 m away, Sep 2013) recorded volume only — about 19,706 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Kingston Rd · Guildwood Pkwy – Dale Ave · 37 mSep 2013 · 3 days19,706

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.
