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 · Sep 12, 2018

Traffic is heaviest from the south: 4,621 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 53 from the east. Most cyclists arrived from the north (104 of 175). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,249 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 1,314 from 4:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 8 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2018, 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.

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.

How fast traffic moves here

On Duvernet Ave between Woodbine Ave and Golfview Ave, 94 m from the corner, a 3-day count in September 2018 put the average speed at 29 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 37 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 40 km/h or more.
