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 · Oct 28, 2021
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 295 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 71 from the north. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 191 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m., 72% above the afternoon peak from 2:00 p.m. (111). Heavy vehicles made up 3.6% 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 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: 191 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 111 from 2:00 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 2019
On Wedgewood Dr between Goswell Rd and Burnhamthorpe Rd, 273 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in March 2011 put the average speed at 37 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 48 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 54 km/h or more. That segment carries about 200 vehicles a day. The reading is 15 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Swan Ave between Wedgewood Dr and Martin Grove Rd measured slower: 27 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 34 km/h (Apr 2019) — a much more recent reading than the one above.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Swan Ave · Wedgewood Dr – Martin Grove Rd · 59 m | Apr 2019 · 2 days | 1,234 | 27 km/h | 34 km/h | 39 km/h |
| Wedgewood Dr · Goswell Rd – Burnhamthorpe Rd · 273 m | Mar 2011 · 24 h | 216 | 37 km/h | 48 km/h | 54 km/h |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.

Pharmacies, hospital sites and care homes from the Ontario Ministry of Health's register — a hospital site may be a rehabilitation or specialty hospital without an emergency department; in an emergency call 911.
