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).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Nov 2, 2023

The west leg carries the load — 2,038 eastbound vehicles, or 59% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 211. Morning rush is the busier period: 384 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:15 a.m., compared with 308 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

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 MacLeod St between Maple Leaf Dr and Rustic Rd (180 m away) recorded an average of 37 km/h in its 24-hour count in January 2013; 85% of drivers were at or under 49 km/h. That segment carries about 400 vehicles a day. Rustic Rd between Blandorman Rd and Cornelius Pkwy measured slower: 39 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 46 km/h (Mar 2023). The reading is 13 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Cornelius Pkwy (309 m away, 30 km/h limit), 5.3% of the 7,553 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a share the City would treat as a speeding problem.

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

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

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.
