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).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Jan 24, 2018

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 1,325 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 123 from the north. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 512 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 30% above the afternoon peak from 5:00 p.m. (395). Heavy vehicles made up 2.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 9 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2018, 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.

How fast traffic moves here

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

On Montgomery Rd between Loyalist Rd and Oak Hampton Blvd, 94 m from the corner, a 3-day count in November 2023 put the average speed at 42 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 49 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 54 km/h or more. That segment carries about 4,200 vehicles a day. Loyalist Rd between Montgomery Rd and Oak Hampton Blvd measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 41 km/h (May 2015). At the school-zone speed sign on Montgomery Rd (247 m away, 40 km/h limit), 6.2% of the 83,575 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a share the City would treat as a speeding problem.

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.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

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.
