Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume8-hour count · Dec 2, 2021

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The west leg carries the load — 1,618 eastbound vehicles, or 88% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 69. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 353 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 67% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (211). Heavy vehicles made up 1.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.

Peak hours: 211 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 353 from 4:30 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 Queens Ave between Stanley Ave and Lane N of Stanley and E of Queens (9 m away) recorded an average of 33 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2021; 85% of drivers were at or under 40 km/h. That segment carries about 200 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Stanley Ave between Elizabeth St and Lane E of Royal York and N of Stanley measured slower: 31 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 38 km/h (Mar 2026) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Mimico Ave (219 m away, 30 km/h limit), 1.6% of the 135,395 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a small minority.
