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 · May 27, 2004

Evening rush dominates here: 139 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 63 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Trucks and buses were 17.3% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 22 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2004, 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: 63 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 139 from 4:45 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.

Speeds here, last measured in 2004

On Thyra Ave between Sutherland Ave and Dentonia Park Ave, 86 m from the corner, a 3-day count in April 2004 put the average speed at 37 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 46 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 50 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,200 vehicles a day. The reading is 22 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Sutherland Ave between Lane E of Thyra and S of Sutherland Ave and Victoria Park Ave measured slower: 36 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 45 km/h (Apr 2004).
