Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

On Lawrence Ave E between Lawrence W and Underhill Dr, 154 m from the corner, a 3-day count in February 2020 put the average speed at 64 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 75 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 90 km/h or more. That segment carries about 45,600 vehicles a day. The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Roanoke Rd (282 m away, 50 km/h limit), 0.1% of the 40,878 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — almost none.

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.
