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 — 14-hour, Nov 8, 2025 (a weekend day)

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 16,183 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.

How fast traffic moves here

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

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. 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). The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Silverstone Dr (104 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.4% of the 73,195 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

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.
