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).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Jun 5, 2024

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 7,561 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 31% of the total, against 3,722 from the west. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,010 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 1,962 from 5:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

On Vaughan Rd between Bansley Ave and Onslow Cres, 158 m from the corner, a 3-day count in October 2021 put the average speed at 45 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 53 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 58 km/h or more. That segment carries about 11,900 vehicles a day. Oakwood Ave between Clovelly Ave and Gloucester Grv measured slower: 42 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 50 km/h (Oct 2024). The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Vaughan Rd · Bansley Ave – Onslow Cres · 158 mOct 2021 · 3 days11,93245 km/h53 km/h58 km/h
Oakwood Ave · Clovelly Ave – Gloucester Grv · 317 mOct 2024 · 3 days20,60342 km/h50 km/h55 km/h

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.
