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 · Mar 18, 2025
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 1,198 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 86% of the total, against 4 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the north (31 of 52). Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 179 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 26% above the afternoon peak from 5:00 p.m. (142). Heavy vehicles made up 1.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 19 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 179 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 142 from 5:00 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.
