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 3, 2024 · weekend
Traffic is heaviest from the east: 6,411 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 167 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the east (88 of 129). Evening rush dominates here: 1,296 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 852 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.8% 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 Sunday, 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: 852 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,296 from 4:00 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 2019, with 8 collisions; 2025 recorded 4. 7 collisions (19%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 4 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 6 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (16%) — a high 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 Jun 20, 2026.
No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.

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 Danforth Rd between Granger Ave and Midland Ave, 200 m from the corner, a 7-day count in July 2023 put the average speed at 42 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 52 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 58 km/h or more.
