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, Oct 18, 2025 (a weekend day)

Traffic is heaviest from the west: 5,873 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 44% of the total, against 965 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 1,214 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:45 p.m., against 982 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 0.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.

How fast traffic moves here

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

On St Clair Ave W between Crang Ave and Appleton Ave, 285 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2022 put the average speed at 37 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 44 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 49 km/h or more. That segment carries about 11,500 vehicles a day. Alberta Ave between Rosemount Ave and Biggar Ave measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 43 km/h (Mar 2004). The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Oakwood Ave (200 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.0% of the 32,020 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none. 3 speed humps slow traffic on Alberta Avenue between St Clair Ave W and Davenport Rd.

Traffic calming

    3 speed humps

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.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Dec 2, 2006.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.

Thefts reported at this corner

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025

Six thefts from vehicles and four bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 2 in 2023–2025, about 0.7 a year, against 1.1 a year before that. 100% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots. Since January 2026, 3 more have been reported, the latest on Jun 4, 2026.
