Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Oct 23, 2024
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 7,921 northbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 1,821. Most cyclists arrived from the south (151 of 323). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,476 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 15% above the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. (1,283). Heavy vehicles made up 3.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 1,283 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 1,476 from 5:00 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

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.
Speeds here, last measured in 2019
The City's counter on Royal York Rd between Thompson Ave and Glenroy Ave (27 m away) recorded an average of 40 km/h in its 3-day count in March 2006; 85% of drivers were at or under 52 km/h. That segment carries about 7,100 vehicles a day. The reading is 20 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
