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 · Apr 19, 2023

The north leg carries the load — 992 southbound vehicles, or 33% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 466. Most cyclists arrived from the north (51 of 76). Morning rush is the busier period: 702 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:00 a.m., compared with 468 from 4:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 4 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.

Peak hours: 702 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 468 from 4:15 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

How fast traffic moves here

The City's counter on Lonsdale Rd between Lallie Haye Lane and Spadina Rd (378 m away) recorded an average of 35 km/h in its 3-day count in April 2019; 85% of drivers were at or under 44 km/h. That segment carries about 2,900 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

At the school-zone speed sign on Forest Hill Rd (368 m away, 30 km/h limit), 39% of the 31,195 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a high share for a school zone.
