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 · Nov 23, 2023

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 9,244 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 860 from the east. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,745 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,647 from 4:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 3 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.
