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.

Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
12 registered apartment buildings with 1,991 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, one of them social or Toronto Community Housing.

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.

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, Mar 25, 2026
The east leg carries the load — 13,788 westbound vehicles, or 46% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 536. Most cyclists arrived from the east (46 of 89). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,913 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 3,032 from 4:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.
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 Sheppard Ave E between Bonnington Pl and Kenneth Ave (102 m away) recorded an average of 49 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2018; 85% of drivers were at or under 60 km/h. That segment carries about 26,000 vehicles a day. Bonnington Pl between Lyndale Dr and Sheppard Ave E measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 44 km/h (Feb 2011). The reading is 8 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Greenfield Ave (258 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.1% of the 43,500 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bonnington Pl · Lyndale Dr – Sheppard Ave E · 49 m | Feb 2011 · 24 h | 5,581 | 35 km/h | 44 km/h | 48 km/h |
| Sheppard Ave E · Bonnington Pl – Kenneth Ave · 102 m | Nov 2018 · 3 days | 26,004 | 49 km/h | 60 km/h | 67 km/h |
School-zone speed sign 258 m
Greenfield Ave (eastbound) · 43,500 vehicles logged in July 2026 · runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.
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
2017 was the peak year (14 collisions), and 2025 closed with 11. 20% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 8 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 16%.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006. The police all-collisions file records 1 fatal collision here in 2016–2025; the KSI file, which is compiled separately and geocoded to the nearest leg, places it just outside the 65 m radius.
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 two thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025. Since January 2026, 2 more have been reported, the latest on May 24, 2026.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through May 24, 2026. 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.
