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 — 14-hour, Jun 3, 2025

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 6,031 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 48% of the total, against 906 from the east. Most cyclists arrived from the south (501 of 1,034). Evening rush dominates here: 1,135 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:15 p.m., against 993 in the morning peak from 7:45 a.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 15 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

On Belsize Dr between Tullis Dr and Wilfrid Ave, 311 m from the corner, a 3-day count in January 2020 put the average speed at 38 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 46 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 50 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,900 vehicles a day. Yonge St between Millwood Rd and Imperial St measured slower: 32 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 43 km/h (Jun 2025). The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 3 speed humps slow traffic on Belsize Drive between Yonge St and Tullis Dr (installed 2003).

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.

All police-reported collisions

Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025
