Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Nov 1, 2022

The west leg carries the load — 2,224 eastbound vehicles, or 54% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 164. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 680 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 704 from 4:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 4 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.

How fast traffic moves here

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

The City's counter on Arcade Dr between La Rose Ave and Adonis Crt (70 m away) recorded an average of 39 km/h in its 24-hour count in May 2002; 85% of drivers were at or under 49 km/h. That segment carries about 700 vehicles a day. La Rose Ave between Arcade Dr and Westmount Park Trl measured slower: 39 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 45 km/h (Apr 2025). The reading is 24 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Arcade Dr (141 m away, 40 km/h limit), 1.0% of the 13,167 vehicles logged in July 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; 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.

Killed or seriously injured

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

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.

Thefts reported at this corner

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
