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 · Oct 24, 2024
The north leg carries the load — 30,014 southbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 3,278. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 4,856 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 4,750 from 3:15 p.m. Trucks and buses were 5.0% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 4,856 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 4,750 from 3:15 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

Within a walk
What the City's own records put within a walk of this corner — distances are the walk along real streets and paths. Shops, banks, gyms and clinics are in no City dataset, so they are not here.
Nothing in the City's records — food premises, parks, schools, libraries, child care, washrooms — is within a walk of this corner.
The median Toronto intersection scores 48. It counts what can be reached, not how pleasant or safe the walk is.
Our own measure, not a licensed walkability rating: every point comes from a City dataset listed under Sources, and the six parts add up to the score. How the score is built · the full ranking.
