The latest City count averages about 1,020 vehicles an hour over its 8-hour span, about the citywide median. Foot traffic runs at about one pedestrian per 15 vehicles, close to the citywide median. That comes with about 13 reported collisions a year, 2016–2025 — 4.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any collisions. The pace has been steady: 62 collisions in 2016–2020 and 63 in 2021–2025. Just one of those 125 collisions left someone killed or seriously injured.

Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Nov 4, 2008

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 3,977 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 446 from the east. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,198 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,125 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 18 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2008, 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.

Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

The City's most recent midblock count on Midland Ave between Duxbury Dr and Steeles Ave E (99 m away, Jun 2016) recorded volume only — about 20,002 vehicles a day — with no speed data. At the school-zone speed sign on Port Royal Trl (395 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.5% of the 25,106 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.
