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 · Aug 24, 2016

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 6,305 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 1,066 from the north. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,959 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,102 from 4:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 10 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2016, 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.

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.

How fast traffic moves here

On Innislawn Rd between McNicoll Ave and Sandy Haven Dr, 36 m from the corner, a 2-day count in March 2018 put the average speed at 34 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 42 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 47 km/h or more. That segment carries about 3,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 8 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Fundy Bay Blvd (199 m away, 30 km/h limit), 1.3% of the 27,534 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a small minority.
