Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Aug 19, 2026
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 1,316 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 44% of the total, against 466 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (43 of 82). Evening rush dominates here: 412 vehicles in the peak hour from 3:30 p.m., against 148 in the morning peak from 6:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles were a negligible share of traffic (0.3%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
Peak hours: 148 vehicles in the hour from 6:30 a.m. and 412 from 3:30 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m

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 Mount Olive Dr between Overskate Crt and Scullion Crt, 132 m from the corner, a 2-day count in February 2019 put the average speed at 33 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 42 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 48 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,900 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Gihon Spring Dr between Gihon Spring Park Trl and Mount Olive Dr measured slower: 32 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 38 km/h (Oct 2025) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Gihon Spring Dr (66 m away, 40 km/h limit), 1.2% of the 69,993 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority.
