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).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Feb 27, 2017

Traffic is heaviest from the west: 3,307 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 56% of the total, against 267 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the east (39 of 83). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 999 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 969 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 10 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.

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 Cosburn Ave between Roblin Ave and Glebemount Ave, 202 m from the corner, a 3-day count in June 2005 put the average speed at 48 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 55 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 59 km/h or more. That segment carries about 9,700 vehicles a day. Woodmount Ave between Plains Rd and O'connor Dr measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 41 km/h (Apr 2018). The reading is 21 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 4 speed humps slow traffic on Woodmount Avenue between Cosburn Ave and O'Connor Dr.

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.
