Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · Apr 26, 2010
Traffic is heaviest from the east: 3,830 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 179 from the south. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 1,455 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 21% above the afternoon peak from 4:15 p.m. (1,206). Heavy vehicles made up 3.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 17 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2010, 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: 1,455 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,206 from 4:15 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 2024, with 8 collisions; 2025 recorded 5. 16 collisions (33%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 1 driver failed to remain at the scene — 2% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 1 collision involved a pedestrian or cyclist (2%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 2 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jul 22, 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 Apr 14, 2014.

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.
How fast traffic moves here
On Conacher Dr between Ruth Ave and Walkway N of Ruth and E of Conacher, 278 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in October 2017 put the average speed at 43 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 50 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 55 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,600 vehicles a day. The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Cummer Ave between Conacher Dr and Bayview Ave measured slower: 38 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 47 km/h (May 2023) — a much more recent reading than the one above.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cummer Ave · Conacher Dr – Bayview Ave · 145 m | May 2023 · 3 days | 8,784 | 38 km/h | 47 km/h | 51 km/h |
| Conacher Dr · Ruth Ave – Walkway N of Ruth and E of Conacher · 278 m | Oct 2017 · 24 h | 1,638 | 43 km/h | 50 km/h | 55 km/h |
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.
