Live traffic camera
The City's RESCU camera at Sheppard Ave E & Bayview Ave — a 320 × 240 still the City replaces every few minutes, with the frame's age and its four fixed reference views
The City's own feed for Bayview & Sheppard, published as a 320 × 240 still that its server replaces every few minutes — the card checks for a new frame every 45 seconds while you are on the page (Reload checks now) and says whether the frame changed.

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: 56 m away, ≈50 spaces; 61 m away, ≈108 spaces; 82 m away, ≈90 spaces; 94 m away, ≈66 spaces; 94 m away, ≈9 spaces; 120 m away, ≈9 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 16, 2024 (a weekend day)
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 22,249 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 33% of the total, against 13,228 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the south (71 of 169). Evening rush dominates here: 6,136 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:00 p.m., against 4,907 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 0.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. 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 most recent midblock count on Sheppard Ave E between Clairtrell Rd and Bayview Ave (84 m away, Sep 2014) recorded volume only — about 21,998 vehicles a day — with no speed data. At the school-zone speed sign on Spring Garden Ave (291 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.4% of the 32,424 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

Spring Garden Ave (westbound), 388 Spring Garden Avenue · 32,424 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
The worst year was 2016, with 191 collisions; 2025 recorded 100. 129 collisions (13%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 145 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 14% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 15 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (1%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 50 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 30, 2026.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. It involved vehicle occupants only — no pedestrian or cyclist. It happened in darkness. The most recent was on Aug 23, 2022. Going back to 2006, the total is 2.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 1 | #1328 of 1,505 |

| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 1 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 2 | latest Aug 23, 2022 |
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.
