Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Nov 29, 2025 (a weekend day)

Traffic is heaviest from the west: 14,528 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 32% of the total, against 9,581 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 4,031 vehicles in the peak hour from 3:30 p.m., against 3,187 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.

Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

On Victoria Park Ave between Southmead Rd and O'connor Dr, 306 m from the corner, a 3-day count in December 2025 put the average speed at 45 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 53 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 59 km/h or more. That segment carries about 21,400 vehicles a day.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th

Eglinton Sq · Victoria Park Ave – Eglinton Ave E · 146 mOct 2014 · 7 days9,944
Victoria Park Ave · Southmead Rd – O'connor Dr · 306 mDec 2025 · 3 days21,41845 km/h53 km/h59 km/h

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.
