Every establishment Toronto Public Health inspects under DineSafe, screened by name to leave out kitchens inside schools, care homes and offices. A conditional pass means infractions had to be fixed by a follow-up visit, not that the premises is closed.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Nov 22, 2025 (a weekend day)

The south leg carries the load — 4,533 northbound vehicles, or 46% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 434. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,038 vehicles in the hour from 2:15 p.m., 81% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (574). Heavy vehicles made up 1.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

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 Bellamy Rd N between Amarillo Dr and Braeburn Blvd (294 m away) recorded an average of 57 km/h in its 24-hour count in November 2004; 85% of drivers were at or under 65 km/h. That segment carries about 11,500 vehicles a day. Nelson St between Kinsmen Gt and Bellamy Rd N measured slower: 28 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 38 km/h (Jul 2025). The reading is 22 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Nelson St (91 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.2% of the 23,731 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

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.
