Donlands & Floyd

Traffic volume8-hour count · May 22, 2013

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The north leg carries the load — 3,741 southbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 272. Most cyclists arrived from the north (58 of 108). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,107 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,136 from 4:00 p.m. Trucks and buses were 12.6% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 13 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2013, 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: 1,107 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,136 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).

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.

Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport.

Toronto Police place eight thefts from vehicles and four bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 2.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 1.2 a year. 88% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.

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 Danforth East York.
