Avenue & Killarney

Traffic volume8-hour count · Oct 17, 2007

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The north leg carries the load — 2,786 southbound vehicles, or 56% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 105. Morning rush is the busier period: 903 vehicles in the peak hour from 7:45 a.m., compared with 775 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 19 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2007, 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: 903 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 775 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).

Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m

2024 was the peak year (2 collisions), and 2025 closed with 1. 0% of collisions here involved an injury. 3 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 60% of collisions. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. Since January 2026, 3 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 9, 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.

How fast traffic moves here

The City's counter on Avenue Rd between Killarney Rd and Hillholm Rd (56 m away) recorded an average of 43 km/h in its 5-day count in May 2001; 85% of drivers were at or under 54 km/h. That segment carries about 8,500 vehicles a day. The reading is 25 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Killarney Rd between Avenue Rd and Forest Hill Rd measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 47 km/h (May 2003). At the school-zone speed sign on Oriole Pkwy (273 m away, 40 km/h limit), 4.7% of the 7,189 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority.

Toronto Police place two thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025.

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 Yonge-St.Clair.
