Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · 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 16,177 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.
Peak hours: 512 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 395 from 5:00 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

A collision counts when its recorded location is within 65 m of the centreline node, intersection-related or not. KSI = killed or seriously injured, the basis of the danger rankings; records can lag a year or more, so the current year is outside the window. How collisions are counted.
How fast traffic moves here
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), 5.2% of the 85,462 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a share the City would treat as a speeding problem.
