Hour by hour, the 14-hour count works out to close to 1,250 vehicles, about the citywide median. Foot traffic runs at about one pedestrian per 5 vehicles — more walking than at most counted intersections, where the median is one per 13. Cyclists were 2.6% of vehicle volume, about 3.4× the typical share. That comes with about 5.9 reported collisions a year, 2016–2025 — 3.4 per 10,000 counted vehicles, below the median rate of 5.0. The pace has been steady: 29 collisions in 2016–2020 and 30 in 2021–2025. Just one of those 59 collisions left someone killed or seriously injured.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

On Royal York Rd between Cavell Ave and Judson St, 94 m from the corner, a 3-day count in March 2022 put the average speed at 43 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 51 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 58 km/h or more. That segment carries about 11,100 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Royal York Rd (166 m away, 50 km/h limit), 0.7% of the 209,637 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — almost none.

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.
