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, Aug 20, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 11,469 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 642 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the east (182 of 258). Evening rush dominates here: 2,108 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 1,405 in the morning peak from 9:00 a.m. Trucks and buses were 5.7% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. 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

The City's most recent midblock count on Overlea Blvd between Thorncliffe Park Dr and William Morgan Dr (95 m away, Nov 2012) recorded volume only — about 34,875 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Overlea Blvd · Thorncliffe Park Dr – William Morgan Dr · 95 mNov 2012 · 3 days34,875

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.
