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, Jan 31, 2024

The south leg carries the load — 9,133 northbound vehicles, or 51% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 297. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,790 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 19% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,508). Heavy vehicles made up 2.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 3 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 counter on Pharmacy Ave between Stellarton Rd and Clairlea Cres (38 m away) recorded an average of 51 km/h in its 24-hour count in November 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 59 km/h. That segment carries about 21,500 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Pharmacy Ave · Stellarton Rd – Clairlea Cres · 38 mNov 2022 · 24 h21,49351 km/h59 km/h65 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.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.
