The City's RentSafeTO register — rental apartment buildings of three or more storeys and ten or more units — with the score from each building's latest City evaluation (out of 100; poor scores trigger a full audit). LTB orders are final Landlord and Tenant Board orders naming the address (Jan 2026 – Jun 2026); fire-code violations are open items in Toronto Fire Services' inspection data. Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport. Condominiums and houses are not registered.
Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 52 m away, ≈108 spaces; 104 m away, ≈113 spaces; 104 m away, ≈35 spaces; 121 m away, ≈103 spaces; 138 m away, ≈264 spaces; 165 m away, ≈18 spaces.
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 — 14-hour, Nov 19, 2024
The north leg carries the load — 15,521 southbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 189. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,584 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,782 from 5:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 22 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
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 counter on Bayview Ave between Finch Ave E and Ruddington Dr (169 m away) recorded an average of 52 km/h in its 3-day count in June 2019; 85% of drivers were at or under 63 km/h. That segment carries about 25,100 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Bayview Ave (129 m away, 50 km/h limit), 1.4% of the 47,394 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — a small minority.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bayview Ave · Finch Ave E – Ruddington Dr · 169 m | Jun 2019 · 3 days | 25,075 | 52 km/h | 63 km/h | 69 km/h |
School-zone speed sign 129 m
Bayview Ave (southbound) · 47,394 vehicles logged in July 2026 · runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.
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.
All police-reported collisions
Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025
2018 was the peak year (13 collisions), and 2025 closed with 6. 21% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 9 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 12% of collisions, below the citywide 16%.

The most recent report on file is from Jun 23, 2026.

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.
