Bloor & Clissold

Traffic volume14-hour count · Mar 26, 2024

The west leg carries the load — 8,814 eastbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 295. Most cyclists arrived from the west (30 of 58). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,664 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,606 from 4:30 p.m. Trucks and buses were 5.4% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,664 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,606 from 4:30 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

2016 was the peak year (2 collisions), and 2025 closed with 1. 33% of collisions here involved an injury. 1 driver failed to remain at the scene — 17% of collisions. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. The most recent report on file is from May 16, 2025.

No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Jul 7, 2011.

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.

Traffic on these streets

The City's most recent midblock count on Bloor St W between Islington Ave and Clissold Rd (46 m away, Sep 2013) recorded volume only — about 12,404 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
