Dufferin & Livingstone

Traffic volume14-hour count · Jan 14, 2026

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The north leg carries the load — 10,492 southbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 365. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,942 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,966 from 4:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

Peak hours: 1,942 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,966 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 peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 4 collisions. 21% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 5 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 18% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%.

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

The City's counter on Dufferin St between Schell Ave and Beltline Trl (284 m away) recorded an average of 36 km/h in its 3-day count in May 2025; 85% of drivers were at or under 48 km/h. That segment carries about 27,300 vehicles a day. Livingstone Ave between Times Rd and Jimmy Wisdom Way measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 42 km/h (May 2024).

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.

Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport.

Toronto Police place two thefts from vehicles and one bicycle theft at this intersection in 2016–2025 — below the median of 6 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 Briar Hill-Belgravia.
