Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Oct 28, 2008

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The north leg carries the load — 9,008 southbound vehicles, or 51% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 121. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,483 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,610 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 18 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2008, 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.

Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

The City's most recent midblock count on Bathurst St between Fairlawn Ave and St Germain Ave (375 m away, Mar 2021) recorded volume only — about 16,710 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Bathurst St · Fairlawn Ave – St Germain Ave · 375 mMar 2021 · 3 days16,710

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Jun 14, 2008.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.

Thefts reported at this corner

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025

Toronto Police place three thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — below the median of 6 for an intersection with any reported theft.
