Dufferin & Eversfield

Traffic volume14-hour count · Oct 30, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 9,935 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 675 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the south (53 of 111). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,704 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 1,806 from 4:15 p.m. Trucks and buses were 5.3% 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 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,704 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 1,806 from 4:15 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 5 collisions; 2025 recorded 0. 6 collisions (26%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 1 driver failed to remain at the scene — 4% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. Since January 2026, 1 more collision has been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from May 29, 2026.

No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 2 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Jun 26, 2015.

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.

Speeds here, last measured in 2001

On Eversfield Rd between Hatherley Rd and Boon Ave, 183 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in September 2001 put the average speed at 41 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 48 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 52 km/h or more. That segment carries about 200 vehicles a day. The reading is 25 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.

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.

Within a kilometre there are 16 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 853 rental units — two social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 2036 Dufferin St (102 m, 12 units, 3 storeys, built 1950), which scored 74 out of 100 at its July 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 80, below the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

16 registered buildings · 853 units · 2 social housing · tallest 16 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.

One theft from a vehicle and three bike thefts were reported around this corner 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 Oakwood Village.
