Live traffic camera
The City's RESCU camera at Victoria Park Ave & Steeles Ave E — a 320 × 240 still the City replaces every few minutes, with the frame's age and its four fixed reference views
The City's own feed for Victoria Park & Steeles, published as a 320 × 240 still that its server replaces every few minutes — the card checks for a new frame every 45 seconds while you are on the page (Reload checks now) and says whether the frame changed. The fixed views are the City's reference stills showing where the camera points in each direction.

Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 212 m away, ≈831 spaces; 330 m away, ≈325 spaces; 330 m away, ≈28 spaces; 342 m away, ≈89 spaces; 348 m away, ≈1,004 spaces; 393 m away, ≈2,108 spaces.
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). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.
Traffic volume
The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Jan 31, 2023
The west leg carries the load — 12,302 eastbound vehicles, or 41% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 2,887. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 4,725 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 17% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (4,053). Heavy vehicles made up 4.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2023, 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.
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
The City's most recent midblock count on Steeles Ave E between Victoria Park Ave and Pharmacy Ave (206 m away, Apr 2014) recorded volume only — about 60,186 vehicles a day — with no speed data.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Steeles Ave E · Victoria Park Ave – Pharmacy Ave · 206 m | Apr 2014 · 3 days | 60,186 | — | — | — |
| Victoria Park Ave · Gordon Baker Rd – Steeles Ave E · 291 m | Jun 2016 · 24 h | 24,259 | — | — | — |
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.
