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 · Jun 25, 2019

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 7,156 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 55% of the total, against 878 from the east. Evening rush dominates here: 1,987 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 1,787 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Trucks and buses were 16.4% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2019, 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.
