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 — 14-hour, Nov 23, 2024 (a weekend day)

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 7,971 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 1,225 from the east. Most cyclists arrived from the north (32 of 57). Evening rush dominates here: 1,625 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:15 p.m., against 1,184 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 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 22 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

How fast traffic moves here

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

On Midland Ave between Hwy 401 Collectors W and Emblem Crt, 280 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in April 2009 put the average speed at 58 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 66 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 70 km/h or more. That segment carries about 12,200 vehicles a day. Pitfield Rd between Manorglen Cres and Midcroft Dr measured slower: 42 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 49 km/h (Nov 2010). The reading is 17 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Pitfield Rd · Manorglen Cres – Midcroft Dr · 184 mNov 2010 · 24 h3,10042 km/h49 km/h55 km/h
Midland Ave · Hwy 401 Collectors W – Emblem Crt · 280 mApr 2009 · 24 h12,17058 km/h66 km/h70 km/h

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.

No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.
