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 15, 2013

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 7,512 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 136 from the south. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,064 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,164 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 14 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2013, 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.
