Knighton & Wyndcliff

Traffic volume8-hour count · Dec 14, 2021

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 1,218 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 46% of the total, against 216 from the north. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 450 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 471 from 4:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, 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: 450 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 471 from 4:15 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 Knighton Dr between Murellen Cres and Prestbury St, 383 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in March 2010 put the average speed at 39 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 49 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 55 km/h or more. That segment carries about 300 vehicles a day. The reading is 16 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Wyndcliff Cres between Sweeney Park Trl and Cobham Cres measured slower: 41 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 49 km/h (Apr 2004). At the school-zone speed sign on Sweeney Dr (250 m away, 40 km/h limit), 2.7% of the 13,909 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority.

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.
