Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume8-hour count · Mar 29, 2023

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The west leg carries the load — 7,118 eastbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 266. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,362 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,254 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2023, 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.

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.

How fast traffic moves here

The City's counter on Bloor St W between Tremont Rd and The East Mall (180 m away) recorded an average of 57 km/h in its 3-day count in June 2019; 85% of drivers were at or under 65 km/h.

At the school-zone speed sign on The East Mall (1/2) (397 m away, 30 km/h limit), 81% of the 162,015 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a high share for a school zone.
