Hour by hour, the 8-hour count works out to close to 960 vehicles, 83% of the median counted intersection. Foot traffic runs at about one pedestrian per 25 vehicles — this is a car-dominated crossing (median: one per 13). That comes with about 12 reported collisions a year, 2016–2025 — 4.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any collisions. Collisions fell 35%, from 75 in 2016–2020 to 49 in 2021–2025. Just one of those 124 collisions left someone killed or seriously injured.

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 — 8-hour, Feb 23, 2022

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 3,044 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 40% of the total, against 667 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 1,358 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 937 in the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. Trucks and buses were 7.5% 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. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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.

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

On Grangeway Ave between Ellesmere Rd and Bushby Dr, 326 m from the corner, a 3-day count in June 2024 put the average speed at 39 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 46 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 50 km/h or more. That segment carries about 5,900 vehicles a day.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Consilium Pl · Progress Ave – Corporate Dr · 172 mSep 2009 · 3 days8,513
Grangeway Ave · Ellesmere Rd – Bushby Dr · 326 mJun 2024 · 3 days5,92039 km/h46 km/h50 km/h
Progress Ave · Corporate Dr – McCowan Rd S · 358 mMar 2015 · 3 days18,488

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.
