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 · Oct 8, 2025
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 4,039 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 214 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the east (37 of 78). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 765 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 805 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 13 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 765 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 805 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 Stockbridge Ave between Norseman St and Saybrook Ave, 125 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in October 2012 put the average speed at 41 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 51 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 55 km/h or more. That segment carries about 400 vehicles a day. The reading is 14 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Norseman St between Gladfern Rd and Lothian Ave measured slower: 43 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 50 km/h (Apr 2019) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Norseman St (39 m away, 30 km/h limit), 39% of the 17,409 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a high share for a school zone.
