Deer Park & Delisle

Traffic volume8-hour count · Nov 21, 2012

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The east leg carries the load — 1,049 westbound vehicles, or 43% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 653. Morning rush is the busier period: 424 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:00 a.m., compared with 342 from 4:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 14 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2012, 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: 424 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 342 from 4:30 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 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.

Our own measure, not a licensed walkability rating: every point comes from a City dataset listed under Sources, and the six parts add up to the score. How the score is built · the full ranking.

67 registered apartment buildings with 4,952 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner — 4.5× the median for a Toronto intersection. The nearest is 4 Deer Park Cres (49 m, 59 units, 13 storeys, built 1967), which scored 89 out of 100 at its July 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 91, about the citywide norm.

67 registered buildings · 4,952 units · tallest 32 storeys. The score is the City's RentSafeTO evaluation out of 100; buildings of three or more storeys and ten or more units are registered, condominiums and houses are not. Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport.

Toronto Police place four thefts from vehicles and three bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft.

Police offset every occurrence to the nearest intersection before publishing, so these are thefts on the streets and premises around this node, not necessarily at the corner itself. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see Yonge-St.Clair.
