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 5, 2026
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 11,707 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 110 from the north. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 2,404 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 14% above the afternoon peak from 3:15 p.m. (2,113). Heavy vehicles made up 2.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
Peak hours: 2,404 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,113 from 3:15 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

A collision counts when its recorded location is within 65 m of the centreline node, intersection-related or not. KSI = killed or seriously injured, the basis of the danger rankings; records can lag a year or more, so the current year is outside the window. How collisions are counted.
Speeds here, last measured in 2011
On Tremont Cres between Gladwyn Rd and Rainham Pl, 105 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in July 2011 put the average speed at 26 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 37 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 40 km/h or more. That segment carries about 200 vehicles a day. The reading is 15 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tremont Cres · Gladwyn Rd – Rainham Pl · 105 m | Jul 2011 · 24 h | 180 | 26 km/h | 37 km/h | 40 km/h |
| Lawrence Ave E · Lane W of the Donway and N of Lawrence – The Donway W · 176 m | Nov 2011 · 3 days | 12,994 | — | — | — |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
