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 · Jun 17, 2025
Traffic is heaviest from the east: 17,630 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 345 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (80 of 151). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,036 vehicles in the hour from 7:30 a.m. and 3,244 from 3:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 16 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 3,036 vehicles in the hour from 7:30 a.m. and 3,244 from 3:30 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.
How fast traffic moves here
On Kingston Rd between Tollgate Mews and Whitecap Blvd, 135 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2022 put the average speed at 55 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 64 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 69 km/h or more. That segment carries about 24,200 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
