Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · Mar 30, 2022
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 4,795 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 50 from the south. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,519 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,614 from 4:45 p.m. Trucks and buses were 6.4% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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: 1,519 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,614 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).

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 2005
On York Mills Rd between Old York Mills Rd and York Ridge Rd, 107 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in April 2005 put the average speed at 58 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 68 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 74 km/h or more. That segment carries about 24,400 vehicles a day. The reading is 21 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| York Mills Rd · Old York Mills Rd – York Ridge Rd · 107 m | Apr 2005 · 24 h | 24,441 | 58 km/h | 68 km/h | 74 km/h |
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.
