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 13, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 14,143 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 53% of the total, against 676 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the north (45 of 67). Evening rush dominates here: 2,565 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 2,163 in the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. Trucks and buses were 5.0% 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 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 22 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

How fast traffic moves here

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

On Sloane Ave between Wyndcliff Cres and Cobham Cres, 310 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in October 2006 put the average speed at 45 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 53 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 57 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,700 vehicles a day. Victoria Park Ave between Janet Blvd and Lawrence Ave E measured slower: 37 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 48 km/h (Sep 2022). The reading is 20 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Sloane Ave · Wyndcliff Cres – Cobham Cres · 310 mOct 2006 · 24 h1,67245 km/h53 km/h57 km/h
Victoria Park Ave · Janet Blvd – Lawrence Ave E · 316 mSep 2022 · 3 days20,72637 km/h48 km/h54 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.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 2 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Jan 10, 2011.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.

Thefts reported at this corner

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
