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 · Feb 24, 2009
Traffic is heaviest from the east: 1,328 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 41% of the total, against 139 from the south. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 981 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 129% above the afternoon peak from 5:00 p.m. (428). Heavy vehicles made up 1.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 18 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2009, 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.
Peak hours: 981 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 428 from 5:00 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m
The worst year was 2017, with 2 collisions; 2025 recorded 1. 3 collisions (43%) involved an injury. 3 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 43% of collisions. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. The most recent report on file is from May 7, 2025.
No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.

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.
Speeds here, last measured in 2021
On Farmcrest Dr between Victoria Pr S and Meadowacres Dr, 50 m from the corner, a 3-day count in October 2021 put the average speed at 26 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 35 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 39 km/h or more. That segment carries about 3,300 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 5 speed humps slow traffic on Farmcrest Drive between Pharmacy Ave and Meadowacres Dr (installed 2025).
