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, Sep 23, 2025

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 6,318 northbound vehicles, or 53% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 362. Most cyclists arrived from the south (179 of 347). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,171 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 11% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (1,051). Trucks and buses were 6.2% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.

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 Weston Rd between Turnberry Ave and Algarve Cres (305 m away) recorded an average of 41 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2023; 85% of drivers were at or under 50 km/h. That segment carries about 16,000 vehicles a day.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th

Old Weston Rd · Turnberry Ave – Algarve Cres · 305 mNov 2023 · 3 days15,97241 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.
