Bathurst & Stewart

Traffic volume14-hour count · Jun 24, 2025

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 6,909 northbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 9. Most cyclists arrived from the south (654 of 1,289). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,075 vehicles in the hour from 8:45 a.m. and 1,129 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 16 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,075 vehicles in the hour from 8:45 a.m. and 1,129 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

2023 was the peak year (9 collisions), and 2025 closed with 2. 10% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 11 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 22% 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, 3 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jul 12, 2026.

One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in darkness. The most recent was on Sep 1, 2023.

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 Stewart St between Portland St and Bathurst St (109 m away) recorded an average of 26 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 37 km/h. That segment carries about 1,300 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.

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.

17 registered apartment buildings with 3,478 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, eight of them social or Toronto Community Housing.

The score is the City's RentSafeTO evaluation out of 100; buildings of three or more storeys and ten or more units are registered, condominiums and houses are not. Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport.

Toronto Police place nine thefts from vehicles and 17 bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 4.3× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 2 in 2023–2025, about 0.7 a year, against 3.4 a year before that. 89% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 76% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking. Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on May 11, 2026.

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 Wellington Place.
