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, Sep 19, 2023
Traffic is heaviest from the east: 14,403 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 48% of the total, against 381 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (75 of 182). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,449 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,631 from 4:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.
How fast traffic moves here
Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming
On Brockley Dr between Liam Foudy Crt and Akil Thomas Gdns, 396 m from the corner, a 3-day count in November 2025 put the average speed at 26 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 36 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 40 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,300 vehicles a day. At the school-zone speed sign on Brockley Dr (276 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.1% of the 8,985 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

School-zone speed sign 276 m
Brockley Dr (northbound), East Side of Brockley Dr, 27m North of Treewood St · 8,985 vehicles logged in July 2026 · runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.
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.
