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, Jul 28, 2026

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 17,207 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 60% of the total, against 1,196 from the east.

Trucks and buses were 5.6% 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. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.

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 Park Lawn Rd between Gardiner E and Park Lawn Gardiner W Ramp (26 m away, Apr 2012) recorded volume only — about 17,149 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Park Lawn Rd · Gardiner E – Park Lawn Gardiner W Ramp · 26 mApr 2012 · 3 days17,149

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.
