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).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Nov 24, 2008

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 2,956 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 53% of the total, against 569 from the east. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 1,026 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 19% above the afternoon peak from 4:45 p.m. (862). Trucks and buses were 6.4% 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 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 18 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2008, 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.

How fast traffic moves here

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

On Runnymede Rd between Colbeck St and Glenwood Ave, 121 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2026 put the average speed at 40 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 48 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 51 km/h or more. That segment carries about 9,700 vehicles a day. Glenwood Ave between Fairview Ave and Kennedy Ave measured slower: 31 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Dec 2024). At the school-zone speed sign on Runnymede Rd (57 m away, 40 km/h limit), 4.8% of the 113,408 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority.

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

Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Aug 29, 2008.

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.

Thefts reported at this corner

One theft from a vehicle and no bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025. Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on Feb 11, 2026.
