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).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Jul 7, 2022

The west leg carries the load — 7,982 eastbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 176. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,636 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 28% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (2,055). Heavy vehicles made up 3.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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 most recent midblock count on Sheppard Ave E between Herons Hill Way and Bards Walkway (82 m away, Sep 2014) recorded volume only — about 20,999 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Sheppard Ave E · Herons Hill Way – Bards Walkway · 82 mSep 2014 · 8 days20,999

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.

All police-reported collisions

Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025

2023 was the peak year (8 collisions), and 2025 closed with 5. 13% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 9 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 23% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%.
