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 · Aug 27, 2020

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 2,529 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 48% of the total, against 295 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the west (97 of 232). Evening rush dominates here: 752 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:00 p.m., against 633 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 6 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2020, 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.
