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 · Mar 10, 2022
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 794 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 41% of the total, against 119 from the west. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 395 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 18% above the afternoon peak from 4:15 p.m. (335). Heavy vehicles made up 3.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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: 395 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 335 from 4:15 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m

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
On Vanderhoof Ave between Rumsey Rd and Sutherland Dr, 101 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in April 2017 put the average speed at 39 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 48 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 53 km/h or more. That segment carries about 800 vehicles a day. The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Sutherland Dr between Parkhurst Blvd and Vanderhoof Ave measured slower: 31 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 37 km/h (Apr 2026) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Hanna Rd (310 m away, 30 km/h limit), 10% of the 16,471 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a share the City would treat as a speeding problem.
