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, Apr 15, 2025

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The west leg carries the load — 16,223 eastbound vehicles, or 51% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 2,380. Most cyclists arrived from the east (69 of 158). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,796 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,864 from 5:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 17 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

The City's counter on The Queensway between Aldgate Ave and Park Lawn Rd (360 m away) recorded an average of 48 km/h in its 3-day count in September 2021; 85% of drivers were at or under 57 km/h. That segment carries about 25,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Stephen Dr · Lane N of the Queensway and W of High – Ringley Ave · 81 mApr 2012 · 3 days5,636
The Queensway · Aldgate Ave – Park Lawn Rd · 360 mSep 2021 · 3 days24,97948 km/h57 km/h61 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.
