That comes with about 5.7 reported collisions a year, 2016–2025 — roughly the median for a Toronto intersection. Collisions edged up 11%, from 27 in 2016–2020 to 30 in 2021–2025. Just one of those 57 collisions left someone killed or seriously injured.

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.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Apr 8, 2014

Traffic is heaviest from the south: 6,723 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 479 from the east. Evening rush dominates here: 2,226 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 1,993 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 12 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2014, 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.

Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.

How fast traffic moves here

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

On Markham Rd between Eastpark Blvd and Greencrest Crct, 123 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2026 put the average speed at 44 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 54 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 59 km/h or more. That segment carries about 23,800 vehicles a day. Stevenwood Rd between Confederation Dr and Markham Rd measured slower: 37 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 44 km/h (Apr 2024).

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.
