Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 19, 2024
Traffic is heaviest from the north: 15,266 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 454 from the west. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,577 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,718 from 5:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 2,577 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,718 from 5:15 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
The worst year was 2017, with 9 collisions; 2025 recorded 5. 11 collisions (20%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 3 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 5% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 5 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (9%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection.

No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 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.
