Traffic volume8-hour count · Jan 10, 2023

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 8,440 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 65 from the east. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 2,795 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 17% above the afternoon peak from 4:45 p.m. (2,393). Heavy vehicles made up 3.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2023, 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.

Peak hours: 2,795 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,393 from 4:45 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.

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.

Speeds here, last measured in 2020

On Yonge St between McNairn Ave and Donwoods Dr, 134 m from the corner, a 7-day count in June 2019 put the average speed at 53 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 63 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 69 km/h or more. That segment carries about 31,300 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Yonge Blvd between Old Orchard Grv and McNairn Ave measured slower: 45 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 53 km/h (Jan 2020).

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
