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, Jan 13, 2026

The north leg carries the load — 1,687 southbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 263. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 398 vehicles in the hour from 3:30 p.m., 14% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (349). Heavy vehicles made up 1.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

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 Old Park Rd between Ridge Hill Dr and Shallmar Blvd (237 m away) recorded an average of 31 km/h in its 3-day count in June 2017; 85% of drivers were at or under 39 km/h. That segment carries about 2,900 vehicles a day. Wembley Rd between Hilltop Rd and Old Park Rd measured slower: 27 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 34 km/h (Nov 2018). The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 4 speed humps slow traffic on Wembley Road between Hilltop Rd and Old Park Rd.

    4 speed humps

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.
