Bathurst St & Finch Corridor Trl

Traffic volume8-hour count · Mar 23, 2015

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The north leg carries the load — 11,409 southbound vehicles, or 54% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 14. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 3,201 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 9% above the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. (2,932). Heavy vehicles made up 2.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 12 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2015, 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: 2,932 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 3,201 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

Toronto Police recorded no collisions of any severity within 65 m of this intersection in 2016–2025.

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.
