Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Sep 11, 2025
Traffic is heaviest from the north: 12,952 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 41% of the total, against 2,327 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the east (44 of 110). Evening rush dominates here: 2,948 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 2,643 in the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 13 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 2,643 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 2,948 from 4:30 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 peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 15 collisions. 19 collisions (15%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 9 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 7% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 3 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (2%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 15 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 23, 2026.
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. It involved vehicle occupants only — no pedestrian or cyclist. It happened in darkness. The most recent was on May 2, 2019. Going back to 2006, the total is 4.

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.
