Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 153 m away, ≈75 spaces; 173 m away, ≈27 spaces; 334 m away, ≈72 spaces; 364 m away, ≈256 spaces; 372 m away, ≈115 spaces; 376 m away, ≈708 spaces.
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, Dec 6, 2023
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The north leg carries the load — 365 southbound vehicles, or 42% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 228. Morning rush is the busier period: 121 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:00 a.m., compared with 100 from 2:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
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 counter on Morning Dew Rd between Woodgarden Cres and Wildlark Dr (51 m away) recorded an average of 33 km/h in its 3-day count in December 2023; 85% of drivers were at or under 42 km/h. That segment carries about 1,000 vehicles a day. Woodgarden Cres between Morning Dew Rd and Melchior Dr measured slower: 26 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 33 km/h (Dec 2023). At the school-zone speed sign on Bennett Rd (295 m away, 40 km/h limit), 2.9% of the 10,035 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Woodgarden Cres · Morning Dew Rd – Melchior Dr · 31 m | Dec 2023 · 3 days | 487 | 26 km/h | 33 km/h | 37 km/h |
| Morning Dew Rd · Woodgarden Cres – Wildlark Dr · 51 m | Dec 2023 · 3 days | 978 | 33 km/h | 42 km/h | 48 km/h |
School-zone speed sign 295 m
Bennett Rd (northbound), 89/93 Bennett Rd · 10,035 vehicles logged in July 2026 · runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.
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
The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 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.
Thefts reported at this corner
Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
Toronto Police place four thefts from vehicles and one bicycle theft at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Reported | 2023–2025 | Since Jan 2026 | Most often from |
|---|---|---|---|---|

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Sep 8, 2024. Police offset every occurrence to the nearest intersection before publishing, so these are thefts on the streets and premises around this node, not necessarily at the corner itself. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see West Hill.
