Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets, and the red-light camera
Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 2, 2024 · weekend
The west leg carries the load — 9,485 eastbound vehicles, or 31% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 5,338. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,876 vehicles in the hour from 2:45 p.m., 43% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (2,013). Heavy vehicles made up 2.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 2,013 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 2,876 from 2:45 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
The City's counter on Danforth Rd between Hart Ave and Linden Ave (366 m away) recorded an average of 57 km/h in its 2-day count in April 2019; 85% of drivers were at or under 68 km/h. That segment carries about 24,100 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Danforth Rd (167 m away, 50 km/h limit), 3.0% of the 160,802 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — a small minority.
