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 · Nov 23, 2024 · weekend
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 9,761 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 52% of the total, against 20 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 1,813 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:30 p.m., against 1,255 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 1,255 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,813 from 2:30 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

How fast traffic moves here
On Midland Ave between Midwest Rd and Brockley Dr, 66 m from the corner, a 2-day count in April 2019 put the average speed at 57 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 65 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 72 km/h or more. That segment carries about 26,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Brockley Dr between Liam Foudy Crt and Akil Thomas Gdns measured slower: 26 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 36 km/h (Nov 2025) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Brockley Dr (252 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.1% of the 8,985 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.
