Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Oct 29, 2025

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 6,443 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 328 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 1,164 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:30 p.m., against 1,025 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Trucks and buses were 5.0% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

On Strathmore Blvd between Donlands Ave and Caithness Ave, 103 m from the corner, a 2-day count in March 2020 put the average speed at 34 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 43 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 49 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,500 vehicles a day. Donlands Ave between Chan Lane and Strathmore Blvd measured slower: 30 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Jun 2022). The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Stratmore Blvd (82 m away, 30 km/h limit), 0.5% of the 69,280 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — almost none.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.

All police-reported collisions

Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025

The peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 4 collisions. 3 collisions (14%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 10 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 45% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 2 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (9%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.

Thefts reported at this corner

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025

Six thefts from vehicles and seven bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 2.2× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 0 in 2023–2025, about 0.0 a year, against 1.9 a year before that. 50% of the vehicle thefts were from other premises; 57% of the bike thefts were from transit property.
