Armadale & Bloor

Traffic volume14-hour count · May 12, 2026

The west leg carries the load — 6,954 eastbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 806. Most cyclists arrived from the west (643 of 1,369). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,325 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 13% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,176). Heavy vehicles made up 4.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

Peak hours: 1,176 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,325 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).

Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m

2016 was the peak year (18 collisions), and 2025 closed with 12. 11% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 29 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 23% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 10% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 13 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 10, 2026.

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

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.

Toronto Police place six thefts from vehicles and seven bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 2.2× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 1.3 a year. 83% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 57% of the bike thefts were from transit property.

Police offset every occurrence to the nearest intersection before publishing, so these are thefts on the streets and premises around this node, not necessarily at the corner itself. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see Runnymede-Bloor West Village.
