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 24, 2006
Traffic is heaviest from the east: 13,292 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 52% of the total, against 109 from the south. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 4,324 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 4,299 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 20 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: 4,324 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 4,299 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).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m
The worst year was 2024, with 9 collisions; 2025 recorded 2. 7 collisions (16%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 6 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 14% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 2 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (5%), typical for the city.

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 2022
On Kingston Rd between Neilson Ave and Dorset Rd, 180 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2022 put the average speed at 52 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 62 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 68 km/h or more. That segment carries about 24,400 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kingston Rd · Neilson Ave – Dorset Rd · 180 m | May 2022 · 3 days | 24,450 | 52 km/h | 62 km/h | 68 km/h |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
