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 · Mar 29, 2022
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 9,163 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 52% of the total, against 41 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 2,846 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 2,360 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 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.
Peak hours: 2,360 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,846 from 4:30 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

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 2018
On Sheppard Ave E between Longmore St and Wilfred Ave, 98 m from the corner, a 3-day count in October 2018 put the average speed at 50 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 60 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 68 km/h or more. That segment carries about 28,100 vehicles a day. The reading is 8 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Longmore St between Sheppard Ave E and Maplehurst Ave measured slower: 39 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 47 km/h (Sep 2013).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Longmore St · Sheppard Ave E – Maplehurst Ave · 45 m | Sep 2013 · 24 h | 2,008 | 39 km/h | 47 km/h | 53 km/h |
| Sheppard Ave E · Longmore St – Wilfred Ave · 98 m | Oct 2018 · 3 days | 28,117 | 50 km/h | 60 km/h | 68 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.
