Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Oct 19, 2025 (a weekend day)

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 10,211 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 29% of the total, against 7,617 from the east. Evening rush dominates here: 3,440 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:00 p.m., against 2,333 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.0% 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 Sunday, 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 Warden Ave between Cass Ave and 2075 Warden Ave, 237 m from the corner, a 3-day count in February 2020 put the average speed at 60 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 68 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 73 km/h or more. That segment carries about 28,900 vehicles a day. The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Sheppard Ave E · Silver Maple Gt – Warden Ave · 136 mSep 2014 · 8 days16,967
Warden Ave · Cass Ave – 2075 Warden Ave · 237 mFeb 2020 · 3 days28,87460 km/h68 km/h73 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.
