Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume14-hour count · Oct 5, 2023

Traffic is heaviest from the west: 1,415 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 37% of the total, against 569 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 559 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:15 p.m., against 322 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 0.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
