There is roughly one pedestrian for every 1.3 vehicles, a higher share of people on foot than the typical counted intersection (one per 13). Cyclists were 5.3% of vehicle volume, about 6.8× the typical share. That comes with about 0.6 reported collisions a year, 2016–2025 — well below the median of 31 for the decade. None of them involved a death or serious injury.

Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Oct 24, 2006

The west leg carries the load — 237 eastbound vehicles, or 30% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 154. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 149 vehicles in the hour from 4:00 p.m., 11% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (134). Heavy vehicles were a negligible share of traffic (0.4%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 20 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2006, 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.

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 Milverton Blvd between Linnsmore Cres and Monarch Park Ave (111 m away) recorded an average of 28 km/h in its 3-day count in August 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 37 km/h. That segment carries about 600 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Glebeholme Blvd (168 m away, 30 km/h limit), 0.1% of the 21,277 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — almost none. 4 speed humps slow traffic on Milverton Boulevard between Greenwood Ave and Linnsmore Cres.

Traffic calming

    4 speed humps

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. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Jun 3, 2010.

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 four bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 1 in 2023–2025, about 0.3 a year, against 1.4 a year before that. 71% of the vehicle thefts were from house driveways and garages.
