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 · May 28, 2025
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 12,219 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 120 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (33 of 47). Evening rush dominates here: 2,438 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 2,100 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 17 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 2,100 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,438 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).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m
The peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 4 collisions. 2 collisions (10%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 3 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 15% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 1 collision involved a pedestrian or cyclist (5%), typical for the city.

One collision in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in darkness. The most recent was on May 16, 2025. Going back to 2006, the total is 2.

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
On Sheppard Ave E between Abbotsfield Gt and Palmdale Dr, 168 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in March 2019 put the average speed at 57 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 66 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 72 km/h or more. That segment carries about 27,600 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Bridlewood Blvd between Sheppard Ave E and Ravencliff Cres measured slower: 45 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 53 km/h (Oct 2018).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bridlewood Blvd · Sheppard Ave E – Ravencliff Cres · 125 m | Oct 2018 · 24 h | 1,666 | 45 km/h | 53 km/h | 58 km/h |
| Sheppard Ave E · Abbotsfield Gt – Palmdale Dr · 168 m | Mar 2019 · 24 h | 27,562 | 57 km/h | 66 km/h | 72 km/h |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
