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
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 2,903 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 910 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the east (60 of 129). Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 564 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 25% above the afternoon peak from 2:30 p.m. (452). Trucks and buses were 24.1% 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.
Peak hours: 564 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 452 from 2:30 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
