Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · May 30, 2024
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 10,683 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 1,556 from the east. Most cyclists arrived from the west (76 of 119). Evening rush dominates here: 1,952 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 1,740 in the morning peak from 7:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 1,740 vehicles in the hour from 7:15 a.m. and 1,952 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).

Speeds here, last measured in 2010
On Lake Shore Blvd W between Marine Parade Dr and Lake Shore W, 197 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in September 2010 put the average speed at 46 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 57 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 62 km/h or more.
