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, May 1, 2019

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The west leg carries the load — 4,083 eastbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 360. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,171 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,206 from 5:00 p.m. Trucks and buses were 9.4% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2019, 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

The City's counter on Roselawn Ave between Danesbury Ave and Beograd Gdns (335 m away) recorded an average of 46 km/h in its 24-hour count in November 2006; 85% of drivers were at or under 54 km/h. That segment carries about 9,300 vehicles a day. Locksley Ave between Roselawn Ave and Castlefield Ave measured slower: 29 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 36 km/h (Jul 2006). The reading is 20 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Locksley Ave · Roselawn Ave – Castlefield Ave · 47 mJul 2006 · 24 h58129 km/h36 km/h39 km/h
Roselawn Ave · Danesbury Ave – Beograd Gdns · 335 mNov 2006 · 24 h9,34246 km/h54 km/h59 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.
