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, Apr 7, 2022

The north leg carries the load — 1,599 southbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 58. Most cyclists arrived from the south (49 of 85). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 472 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 461 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.2% 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 2022, 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 counter on Rose Park Dr between Mount Pleasant Rd and Welland Ave (157 m away) recorded an average of 35 km/h in its 3-day count in September 2011; 85% of drivers were at or under 47 km/h. That segment carries about 600 vehicles a day. Welland Ave between Glenrose Ave and St Clair Ave E measured slower: 36 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 43 km/h (Apr 2013). The reading is 15 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Rose Park Dr · Mount Pleasant Rd – Welland Ave · 157 mSep 2011 · 3 days55035 km/h47 km/h53 km/h
Welland Ave · Glenrose Ave – St Clair Ave E · 160 mApr 2013 · 3 days2,30936 km/h43 km/h47 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

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

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
