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, Oct 7, 2025

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The north leg carries the load — 14,530 southbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 489. Most cyclists arrived from the north (34 of 41). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,541 vehicles in the hour from 3:30 p.m., 22% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (2,082). Heavy vehicles made up 3.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

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 Markham Rd between Greenholm Crct and Rochman Blvd (127 m away) recorded an average of 56 km/h in its 2-day count in September 2019; 85% of drivers were at or under 65 km/h. That segment carries about 25,100 vehicles a day. Rochman Blvd between Abbeville Rd and Sharbot Ave measured slower: 36 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 43 km/h (Feb 2013). The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Markham Rd · Greenholm Crct – Rochman Blvd · 127 mSep 2019 · 2 days25,11056 km/h65 km/h70 km/h
Rochman Blvd · Abbeville Rd – Sharbot Ave · 223 mFeb 2013 · 24 h56436 km/h43 km/h48 km/h

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.
