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). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Mar 18, 2025

Traffic is heaviest from the south: 11,007 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 39% of the total, against 4,205 from the east. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,374 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 2,454 from 2:30 p.m. Trucks and buses were 8.8% 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 18 months 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

On Horner Ave between Kipling Ave and Tupper Ave, 45 m from the corner, a 3-day count in November 2025 put the average speed at 49 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 58 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 64 km/h or more. That segment carries about 11,700 vehicles a day.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Horner Ave · Kipling Ave – Tupper Ave · 45 mNov 2025 · 3 days11,72049 km/h58 km/h64 km/h
Kipling Ave · Towns Rd – Horner Ave · 75 mSep 2014 · 3 days13,802

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.

All police-reported collisions

Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025

The worst year was 2018, with 26 collisions; 2025 recorded 18. 32 collisions (16%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 17 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 8% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 5 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (2%), a low share for a Toronto intersection.

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
