Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · 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 16,177 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.
Peak hours: 1,405 vehicles in the hour from 9:00 a.m. and 2,108 from 4:45 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
