Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. 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). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.
Traffic volume
The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Oct 26, 2025 (a weekend day)
The south leg carries the load — 8,784 northbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 671. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,971 vehicles in the hour from 2:00 p.m., 98% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (996). Heavy vehicles made up 0.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count was taken on a Sunday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.
Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.
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 Surrey Ave and Inniswood Dr (113 m away) recorded an average of 49 km/h in its 3-day count in April 2024; 85% of drivers were at or under 57 km/h. That segment carries about 23,700 vehicles a day. Surrey Ave between Inniswood Dr and Shandara Cres measured slower: 40 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 47 km/h (Oct 2025). At the school-zone speed sign on Pharmacy Ave (126 m away, 50 km/h limit), 3.1% of the 224,704 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — a small minority.

Pharmacy Ave (northbound), 57 Romfield Circuit · 224,704 vehicles logged in July 2026 · runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.
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.

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.
