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: 41 m away, ≈79 spaces; 41 m away, ≈34 spaces; 115 m away, ≈84 spaces; 137 m away, ≈11 spaces; 185 m away, ≈85 spaces; 289 m away, ≈228 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, Oct 19, 2024 (a weekend day)
Traffic is heaviest from the north: 9,105 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 48% of the total, against 666 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the north (82 of 120). Evening rush dominates here: 1,810 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:45 p.m., against 1,254 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.3% 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 23 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
On Birchmount Rd between Glendower Crct and Timberbank Blvd, 220 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in October 2011 put the average speed at 61 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 68 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 73 km/h or more. That segment carries about 18,900 vehicles a day. Timberbank Blvd between Chaldean St and Gloxinia Cres measured slower: 43 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 53 km/h (Aug 2005). The reading is 15 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Finch Ave E (340 m away, 50 km/h limit), 3.3% of the 53,804 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — a small minority. 17 speed humps slow traffic on Timberbank Boulevard between Bridletown Circle and Birchmount Rd.

Traffic calming

17 speed humps
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 2024, with 11 collisions; 2025 recorded 4. 6 collisions (12%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 9 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 18% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 4 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (8%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Aug 21, 2006.
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.
Thefts reported at this corner
Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
