Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume8-hour count · Nov 16, 2022

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 1,486 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 106 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (33 of 66). Evening rush dominates here: 469 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 402 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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.
