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 · Sep 24, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 7,579 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 865 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the north (325 of 652). Evening rush dominates here: 1,420 vehicles in the peak hour from 3:30 p.m., against 1,257 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

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 Lola Rd between Lane W of Yonge and S of Lola Rd and Duplex Ave, 110 m from the corner, a 3-day count in June 2010 put the average speed at 39 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 47 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 50 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 16 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 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) — a much more recent reading than the one above. 2 speed humps slow traffic on Lola Road between Duplex Ave and Yonge St.
