Dundas & Bloor (East)

Traffic volume14-hour count · Jun 25, 2025

The east leg carries the load — 8,629 westbound vehicles, or 29% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 6,268. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,497 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 2,436 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 16 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 2,497 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 2,436 from 4:45 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

2019 was the peak year (93 collisions), and 2025 closed with 46. 10% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 69 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 12% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 4% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 45 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 27, 2026.

Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt; one collision involved vehicle occupants only. The most recent was on Nov 24, 2024. Going back to 2006, the total is 10.

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 Dundas St W between Chelsea Ave and Glenlake Ave (311 m away) recorded an average of 43 km/h in its 3-day count in September 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 52 km/h. That segment carries about 27,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Bloor St W between Perth Ave and Dundas St W measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 40 km/h (Apr 2026). At the school-zone speed sign on Dundas St W (159 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.0% of the 5,997 vehicles logged in April 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

Speed sign

Dundas St W (northbound), 159 m — 40 km/h zone. Median 6 km/h, 85th percentile 19 km/h; 0.0% at 50 km/h or more. 5,997 vehicles logged in April 2026; runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.

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.

22 registered apartment buildings with 2,877 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, eight of them social or Toronto Community Housing.

Toronto Police place eight thefts from vehicles and six bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 2.3× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 1.4 a year. 63% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 33% of the bike thefts were from other premises. Since January 2026, 2 more have been reported, the latest on Jun 28, 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 Roncesvalles.
