Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · Jun 25, 2002
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 10,245 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 52% of the total, against 119 from the west. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,814 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 3,003 from 4:45 p.m. Trucks and buses were 9.0% 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 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 24 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2002, 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.
Peak hours: 2,814 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 3,003 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 2006
On Warden Ave between Murray Glen Dr and Ellington Dr, 68 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in October 2006 put the average speed at 55 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 66 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 76 km/h or more. That segment carries about 32,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 20 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
