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 · Feb 26, 2026

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 3,163 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 48% of the total, against 478 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the east (54 of 115). Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 628 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 28% above the afternoon peak from 4:30 p.m. (491). Trucks and buses were 21.1% 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. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.

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.
