The latest City count averages about 1,190 vehicles an hour over its 8-hour span, about the citywide median. Foot traffic runs at about one pedestrian per 45 vehicles — this is a car-dominated crossing (median: one per 13). That comes with about 3.2 reported collisions a year, 2016–2025 — roughly the median for a Toronto intersection. Collisions fell 22%, from 18 in 2016–2020 to 14 in 2021–2025. Just one of those 32 collisions left someone killed or seriously injured.

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 — 8-hour, Feb 9, 2022

Traffic is heaviest from the south: 4,318 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 45% of the total, against 406 from the east. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,481 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,450 from 4:00 p.m. Trucks and buses were 6.4% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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.

Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

On Kipling Ave between Gracey Blvd and The Westway, 380 m from the corner, a 2-day count in July 2023 put the average speed at 54 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 15,900 vehicles a day. Clement Rd between Clementview Crt and Denfield St measured slower: 45 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 53 km/h (Aug 2014). At the school-zone speed sign on Denfield St (237 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.5% of the 31,079 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

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.
