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 21, 2025

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 5,265 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 44% of the total, against 4 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the south (83 of 156). Evening rush dominates here: 1,135 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:15 p.m., against 877 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 17 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 877 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,135 from 5:15 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.

How fast traffic moves here

On Logan Ave between Floyd Ave and Gowan Ave, 242 m from the corner, a 3-day count in November 2020 put the average speed at 32 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 40 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 45 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,400 vehicles a day. The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Mortimer Ave between Carlaw Ave and Lane W of East York and S of Mortimer measured slower: 28 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Dec 2025) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Gowan Ave (338 m away, 30 km/h limit), 2.6% of the 28,254 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a small minority. 5 speed humps slow traffic on Logan Avenue between Danforth Ave and Mortimer Ave, and 1 more calmed segment ends here.
