Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Mar 10, 2020

The west leg carries the load — 5,199 eastbound vehicles, or 47% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 682. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,745 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,710 from 4:30 p.m. Trucks and buses were 12.0% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2020, 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.

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

The City's counter on Lawrence Ave W between Pine St and Lane E of Ralph and N of Lawrence (116 m away) recorded an average of 55 km/h in its 24-hour count in October 2013; 85% of drivers were at or under 65 km/h. That segment carries about 21,100 vehicles a day. Pine St between Wright Ave and Lawrence Ave W measured slower: 36 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 45 km/h (Jan 2023). The reading is 13 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Lawrence Ave W · Pine St – Lane E of Ralph and N of Lawrence · 116 mOct 2013 · 24 h21,05255 km/h65 km/h73 km/h
Pine St · Wright Ave – Lawrence Ave W · 120 mJan 2023 · 3 days1,88236 km/h45 km/h50 km/h

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

Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 2 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Jul 8, 2013.

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

Toronto Police place seven thefts from vehicles and one bicycle theft at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 57% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.
