Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Apr 1, 2025
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 799 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 153 from the south. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 198 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 22% above the afternoon peak from 5:15 p.m. (162). Heavy vehicles made up 2.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 19 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 198 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 162 from 5:15 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

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 Wychwood Ave between Maplewood Ave and Valewood Ave, 74 m from the corner, a 5-day count in December 2009 put the average speed at 34 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 44 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 50 km/h or more. That segment carries about 700 vehicles a day. The reading is 17 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Maplewood Ave between Humewood Dr and Cherrywood Ave measured slower: 30 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 37 km/h (Oct 2017) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Vaughan Rd (356 m away, 30 km/h limit), 41% of the 121,339 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a high share for a school zone. 3 speed humps slow traffic on Wychwood Avenue between Maplewood Ave and Vaughan Rd.
