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 · Oct 4, 2017
Traffic is heaviest from the north: 5,560 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 66 from the east. Evening rush dominates here: 1,812 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 1,589 in the morning peak from 7:30 a.m. Trucks and buses were 6.5% 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 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 9 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2017, 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.
Peak hours: 1,589 vehicles in the hour from 7:30 a.m. and 1,812 from 4:00 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
The worst year was 2024, with 2 collisions; 2025 recorded 0. 2 collisions (17%) involved an injury. 1 driver failed to remain at the scene — 8% of collisions. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. The most recent report on file is from Sep 24, 2024.
No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.

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.
