Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume8-hour count · Mar 16, 2021

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 2,258 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 511 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 766 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 520 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 6 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, 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.

A collision counts when its recorded location is within 65 m of the centreline node, intersection-related or not. KSI = killed or seriously injured, the basis of the danger rankings; records can lag a year or more, so the current year is outside the window. How collisions are counted.

How fast traffic moves here

On Progress Ave between Rosebank Dr and Orchid Place Dr, 79 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in November 2005 put the average speed at 52 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 59 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 68 km/h or more. That segment carries about 9,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 21 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Burrows Hall Blvd (352 m away, 30 km/h limit), 0.7% of the 31,230 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — almost none.
