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 · Nov 2, 2024 · weekend
Traffic is heaviest from the north: 6,393 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 626 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the north (243 of 345). Evening rush dominates here: 1,162 vehicles in the peak hour from 3:45 p.m., against 868 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 868 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,162 from 3:45 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 2018, with 5 collisions; 2025 recorded 4. 4 collisions (20%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 4 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 20% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. Since January 2026, 3 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Mar 14, 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 Jun 17, 2013.

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.
