Traffic volume14-hour count · Oct 20, 2024 · weekend

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 6,980 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 33% of the total, against 4,025 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 1,923 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 1,418 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.4% 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 Sunday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,418 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,923 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.
