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 11, 2005
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The north leg carries the load — 154 southbound vehicles, or 37% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 116. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 91 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 30% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (70). Heavy vehicles made up 0.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 21 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2005, 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: 70 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 91 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).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m
2018 was the peak year (2 collisions), and 2025 closed with 0. 0% of collisions here involved an injury. 2 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 40% of collisions. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. The most recent report on file is from Apr 22, 2022.

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 College View Ave between Avenue Rd and Braemar Ave (364 m away) recorded an average of 42 km/h in its 3-day count in June 2010; 85% of drivers were at or under 50 km/h. That segment carries about 2,100 vehicles a day. The reading is 16 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Tarlton Rd between College View Ave and Lane S of Eglinton and W of Tarlton Rd measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 43 km/h (May 2017) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Avenue Rd (391 m away, 50 km/h limit), 0.0% of the 71,169 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — almost none.
