Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets, and the red-light camera

Traffic volume14-hour count · Feb 21, 2024

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 11,075 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 30% of the total, against 6,400 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 3,812 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 3,230 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 3,230 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 3,812 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 2020

On Bloor St W between The West Mall and Renforth Dr, 56 m from the corner, a 3-day count in November 2020 put the average speed at 44 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 57 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 63 km/h or more. That segment carries about 16,100 vehicles a day. The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. The West Mall between Leavenworth Cres and Bloor St W measured slower: 49 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 57 km/h (Nov 2014).
