Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Oct 4, 2017

The north leg carries the load — 3,339 southbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 117. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,017 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 14% above the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. (896). Trucks and buses were 7.3% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 9 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2017, 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.

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 Weston Rd between Dora Spencer Rd and Sidney Belsey Cres (315 m away) recorded an average of 46 km/h in its 3-day count in February 2020; 85% of drivers were at or under 55 km/h. That segment carries about 15,300 vehicles a day. Clouston Ave between Monklands Ave and Centre Rd measured slower: 30 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 41 km/h (Oct 2021). The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Sidney Belsey Cres (290 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.0% of the 17,346 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none. 4 speed humps slow traffic on Clouston Avenue between Denison Rd W and Weston Rd.

Traffic calming

    4 speed humps

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. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Feb 19, 2009.

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

Toronto Police place three thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — below the median of 6 for an intersection with any reported theft.
