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 · Nov 8, 2025 · weekend

Traffic is heaviest from the west: 6,638 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 42% of the total, against 1,066 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the west (36 of 73). Evening rush dominates here: 1,598 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:15 p.m., against 993 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.

Peak hours: 993 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,598 from 2:15 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

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 John Garland Blvd between Mosque Cres and Humber College Blvd, 380 m from the corner, a 3-day count in July 2021 put the average speed at 41 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 48 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 53 km/h or more. That segment carries about 5,700 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Silverstone Dr between Midhurst Dr and Avening Dr measured slower: 39 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 45 km/h (Apr 2026) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Silverstone Dr (104 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.5% of the 72,894 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.
