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).

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Apr 21, 2022

Traffic is heaviest from the south: 1,074 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 37% of the total, against 358 from the west. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 545 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m., 14% above the afternoon peak from 5:00 p.m. (477). Heavy vehicles made up 2.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 4 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.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

On Hillsdale Ave E between Cleveland St and Bayview Ave, 147 m from the corner, a 3-day count in November 2017 put the average speed at 38 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 47 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 51 km/h or more. That segment carries about 2,000 vehicles a day. Cleveland St between Belsize Dr and Manor Rd E measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 42 km/h (Sep 2014). The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Cheston Rd (214 m away, 30 km/h limit), 0.2% of the 8,050 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — almost none. 6 speed humps slow traffic on Hillsdale Avenue East between Forman Ave and Cleveland St (installed 2005), and 1 more calmed segment ends here.

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.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.

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

Police records place no theft from a vehicle or bicycle theft at this intersection in 2016–2025, though 1 has been reported since January 2026.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Jun 14, 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. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see Mount Pleasant East.
