Traffic volume14-hour count · Sep 16, 2026
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 12,438 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 29% of the total, against 9,933 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 3,698 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 3,139 in the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. Trucks and buses were 5.6% 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. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
Peak hours: 3,139 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 3,698 from 4:00 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.
