Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. 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.

How fast traffic moves here

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

On Linwood Ave between Kennedy Rd and Belgreen Ave, 103 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in May 2006 put the average speed at 36 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 47 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 53 km/h or more. That segment carries about 500 vehicles a day. Belgreen Ave between Havendale Park Trl and Farmington Cres measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 42 km/h (May 2006). The reading is 20 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Linwood Ave · Kennedy Rd – Belgreen Ave · 103 mMay 2006 · 24 h49036 km/h47 km/h53 km/h
Belgreen Ave · Havendale Park Trl – Farmington Cres · 196 mMay 2006 · 24 h39835 km/h42 km/h47 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.

No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.
