Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Feb 26, 2025

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 2,520 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 46% of the total, against 142 from the west. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 557 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m., 13% above the afternoon peak from 4:00 p.m. (495). Heavy vehicles made up 3.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 18 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

How fast traffic moves here

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

On Elvaston Dr between Wigmore Park Trl and Halkin Cres, 335 m from the corner, a 3-day count in April 2026 put the average speed at 39 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 47 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 52 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,500 vehicles a day. Sloane Ave between Tufton Cres and Draycott Dr measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 43 km/h (May 2019).

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Sloane Ave · Tufton Cres – Draycott Dr · 132 mMay 2019 · 3 days5,64635 km/h43 km/h47 km/h
Elvaston Dr · Wigmore Park Trl – Halkin Cres · 335 mApr 2026 · 3 days1,49439 km/h47 km/h52 km/h

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.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.
