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 — 8-hour, Jun 29, 2021
The east leg carries the load — 4,687 westbound vehicles, or 56% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 3,684. Most cyclists arrived from the east (501 of 989). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,126 vehicles in the hour from 2:00 p.m., 10% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (1,027). Heavy vehicles made up 3.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
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 counter on Bloor St W between St Clarens Ave and Lansdowne Ave (210 m away) recorded an average of 27 km/h in its 3-day count in April 2026; 85% of drivers were at or under 35 km/h. That segment carries about 16,000 vehicles a day. Margueretta St between Susan Tibaldi Parkette Trl and Wallace Ave measured slower: 27 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 34 km/h (Jun 2022). 10 speed humps slow traffic on Margueretta Street between College St and Bloor St W, and 1 more calmed segment ends here.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bloor St W · St Clarens Ave – Lansdowne Ave · 210 m | Apr 2026 · 3 days | 16,017 | 27 km/h | 35 km/h | 40 km/h |

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

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. 1 cyclist was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Nov 1, 2020. Going back to 2006, the total is 2.
By year

| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 0 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 2 | latest Nov 1, 2020 |
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
Toronto Police place 22 thefts from vehicles and two bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 4.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Dec 23, 2024. Police offset every occurrence to the nearest intersection before publishing, so these are thefts on the streets and premises around this node, not necessarily at the corner itself.
