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 · Jun 10, 2025

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 7,533 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 48% of the total, against 127 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the east (259 of 466). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,486 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,515 from 5:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 16 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
