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 · Nov 12, 2020

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 341 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 43% of the total, against 127 from the south. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 261 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m., 207% above the afternoon peak from 5:00 p.m. (85). Trucks and buses were 10.9% 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 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 6 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2020, 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 Roywood Dr between Lynedock Park Trl and Marbury Cres, 251 m from the corner, a 2-day count in December 2019 put the average speed at 44 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 52 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 58 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,700 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Evermede Dr between Versend Dr and Roywood Dr measured slower: 28 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Dec 2019). At the school-zone speed sign on Fenside Dr (152 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.7% of the 27,506 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.
