Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · Aug 20, 2007
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 344 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 41% of the total, against 181 from the east. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 128 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m., 14% above the afternoon peak from 4:00 p.m. (112). Trucks and buses were 12.2% 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 19 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2007, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
Peak hours: 128 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 112 from 4:00 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

A collision counts when its recorded location is within 65 m of the centreline node, intersection-related or not. KSI = killed or seriously injured, the basis of the danger rankings; records can lag a year or more, so the current year is outside the window. How collisions are counted.
How fast traffic moves here
On Park Rd between Rosedale Rd and Avondale Rd, 151 m from the corner, a 2-day count in March 2011 put the average speed at 28 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 34 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 39 km/h or more. That segment carries about 2,300 vehicles a day. The reading is 15 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on South Dr (170 m away, 30 km/h limit), 0.8% of the 17,465 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — almost none.
