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 · Oct 7, 2025

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 6,917 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 43% of the total, against 1,897 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 1,466 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 1,324 in the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 13 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,324 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 1,466 from 4:00 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 Rogers Rd between Blackthorn Ave and Bronoco Ave, 212 m from the corner, a 2-day count in February 2022 put the average speed at 37 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 45 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 49 km/h or more. That segment carries about 11,500 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Silverthorn Ave between Rowntree Ave and Rogers Rd measured slower: 24 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 32 km/h (Sep 2025). At the school-zone speed sign on Rogers Rd (326 m away, 40 km/h limit), 3.2% of the 171,877 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority.
