Traffic volume14-hour count · Jul 25, 2026 · weekend

Traffic is heaviest from the south: 5,463 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 29% of the total, against 3,547 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 1,711 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:45 p.m., against 1,238 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.

Peak hours: 1,238 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,711 from 5:45 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 2017, with 77 collisions; 2025 recorded 45. 60 collisions (11%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 83 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 15% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 36 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (6%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 25 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Aug 7, 2026.

None of the four serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 2 pedestrians and 2 cyclists were among those hurt. 2 of the 4 happened in darkness — 50%, about the citywide 39%. 2021 alone accounted for 2 of them. The most recent was on Apr 15, 2021. Going back to 2006, the total is 6.

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.

Traffic on these streets

The City's most recent midblock count on Bathurst St between Lane S of Dundas and W of Bathurst and Dundas St W (52 m away, May 2015) recorded volume only — about 10,799 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

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 21 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 1,374 rental units — 12 social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 25 Leonard Ave (358 m, 77 units, 6 storeys, built 1960), which scored 96 out of 100 at its August 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 85, below the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

21 registered buildings · 1,374 units · 12 social housing · tallest 14 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.

19 thefts from vehicles and nine bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 4.7× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 2.8 a year. 95% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 56% of the bike thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots. Since January 2026, 2 more have been reported, the latest on Jun 23, 2026.

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 Kensington-Chinatown.
