Traffic volume8-hour count · Dec 9, 2008

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 14,712 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 43 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 6,293 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 4,727 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 18 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2008, not today's volume.
