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 18, 2005
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 146 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 59% of the total, against 101 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 40 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 33 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles were a negligible share of traffic (0.4%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 22 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2005, 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.
Peak hours: 33 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 40 from 4:45 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m
The worst year was 2022, with 2 collisions; 2025 recorded 0. 0 collisions (0%) involved an injury. 4 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 67% of collisions. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. The most recent report on file is from May 12, 2024.
No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All reported collisions | 6 | |
| With an injury | 0 | |
| Property damage only | 2 | |
| Fail to remain | 4 | |
| Involving a pedestrian | 0 | |
| Involving a cyclist | 0 | |
| Severity not classified | 4 | |
| Killed or seriously injured | 0 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 0 |
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.
Speeds here, last measured in 2020
On Marjory Ave between Lane N of Dagmar and W of Marjory and Austin Ave, 49 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in March 2020 put the average speed at 31 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 40 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 47 km/h or more. That segment carries about 400 vehicles a day. The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Austin Ave between Lane E of Pape and S of Austin and Marjory Ave measured slower: 30 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Apr 2005).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Marjory Ave · Lane N of Dagmar and W of Marjory – Austin Ave · 49 m | Mar 2020 · 24 h | 411 | 31 km/h | 40 km/h | 47 km/h |
| Austin Ave · Lane E of Pape and S of Austin – Marjory Ave · 97 m | Apr 2005 · 3 days | 194 | 30 km/h | 39 km/h | 45 km/h |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
