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 · Jan 24, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 4,728 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 360 from the east. Evening rush dominates here: 1,012 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 922 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.9% 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.
