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, Aug 19, 2026

The south leg carries the load — 8,686 northbound vehicles, or 39% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 2,140. Most cyclists arrived from the south (34 of 78). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,306 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 45% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,593). Heavy vehicles made up 4.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

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 Bellamy Rd N between Ellesmere Rd and Progress Ave (182 m away) recorded an average of 53 km/h in its 3-day count in March 2024; 85% of drivers were at or under 62 km/h. That segment carries about 15,700 vehicles a day.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Corporate Dr · Toyota Pl – Progress Ave · 0 mMar 2015 · 3 days11,512
Progress Ave · Grangeway Ave – Bellamy Rd N · 129 mMar 2015 · 3 days7,646
Bellamy Rd N · Ellesmere Rd – Progress Ave · 182 mMar 2024 · 3 days15,69253 km/h62 km/h68 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

Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Aug 18, 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.

Thefts reported at this corner

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025

Toronto Police place 17 thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 2.8× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft.
