Around the corner
Food premises, public washrooms, child care and emergency services — distances are straight-line from the node
Restaurants & food
Toronto Public Health inspects 59 eating places within 300 m of this corner, plus 5 grocery and convenience stores; within a kilometre the count is 372 — 5.1× the median for a Toronto intersection. The nearest is C. Mitropoulos - Toronto Plate No. 03099 (Hot Dog Cart), 50 m away, which passed its last DineSafe inspection in March 2026.

RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score

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, May 2, 2011
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 3,275 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 54% of the total, against 257 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (48 of 85). Evening rush dominates here: 1,088 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 902 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Trucks and buses were 6.4% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 15 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2011, 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
On Bremner Blvd between Olympic Park Trl and Rees St, 270 m from the corner, a 3-day count in January 2026 put the average speed at 30 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 38 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 44 km/h or more. That segment carries about 6,600 vehicles a day.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bremner Blvd · Olympic Park Trl – Rees St · 270 m | Jan 2026 · 3 days | 6,648 | 30 km/h | 38 km/h | 44 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
Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025

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 pedestrian and 1 cyclist were among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Sep 17, 2023. Going back to 2006, the total is 2.
By year

| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 0 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 2 | latest Sep 17, 2023 |
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
Seven thefts from vehicles and seven bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 2.3× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft.

Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on May 2, 2026.
