Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Aug 18, 2026

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The west leg carries the load — 17,804 eastbound vehicles, or 53% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 427. Most cyclists arrived from the west (62 of 119). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 3,212 vehicles in the hour from 4:15 p.m., 26% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (2,553). Heavy vehicles made up 2.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

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 Lawrence Ave E between The Donway E and Greenland Rd (116 m away) recorded an average of 59 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2020; 85% of drivers were at or under 67 km/h. That segment carries about 36,900 vehicles a day. Greenland Rd between Waxwing Pl and Deepwood Cres measured slower: 37 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 45 km/h (Apr 2011). The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on The Donway E (327 m away, 40 km/h limit), 3.7% of the 74,774 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.
