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
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 20,821 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 311 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the south (36 of 63). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,464 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 3,470 from 3:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.0% 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: 3,464 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 3,470 from 3:00 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 peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 11 collisions. 8 collisions (16%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 8 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 16% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 3 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (6%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 7 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 18, 2026.
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.
