Clendenan & Bloor

Traffic volume8-hour count · Mar 22, 2022

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 4,893 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 787 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the east (100 of 217). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,479 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,560 from 4:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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: 1,479 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,560 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 worst year was 2017, with 10 collisions; 2025 recorded 1. 9 collisions (18%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 2 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 4% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 6 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (12%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 1 more collision has been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Apr 4, 2026.

No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Sep 24, 2012.

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.

Speeds here, last measured in 2009

On Bloor St W between Quebec Ave and High Park Trl, 210 m from the corner, a 2-day count in May 2009 put the average speed at 48 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 56 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 62 km/h or more. That segment carries about 17,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 17 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
