The City's RentSafeTO register — rental apartment buildings of three or more storeys and ten or more units — with the score from each building's latest City evaluation (out of 100; poor scores trigger a full audit). LTB orders are final Landlord and Tenant Board orders naming the address (Jan 2026 – Jun 2026); fire-code violations are open items in Toronto Fire Services' inspection data. Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport. Condominiums and houses are not registered.

Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.
Traffic volume
The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Oct 16, 2003
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The east leg carries the load — 3,750 westbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 52. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,313 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 18% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,117). Heavy vehicles made up 3.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 23 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2003, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.
How fast traffic moves here
Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming
The City's counter on Dundas St E between Woodfield Rd and Hiawatha Rd (135 m away) recorded an average of 37 km/h in its 7-day count in June 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 45 km/h. That segment carries about 10,400 vehicles a day. Highfield Rd between Kerr Rd and Dundas St E measured slower: 26 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 34 km/h (Mar 2013). The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 1 speed hump slow traffic on Highfield Road between Dundas St E and Kerr Rd, and 1 more calmed segment ends here.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Highfield Rd · Kerr Rd – Dundas St E · 47 m | Mar 2013 · 24 h | 250 | 26 km/h | 34 km/h | 38 km/h |
| Dundas St E · Woodfield Rd – Hiawatha Rd · 135 m | Jun 2022 · 7 days | 10,393 | 37 km/h | 45 km/h | 49 km/h |
Traffic calming

1 speed hump - Highfield Road · Dundas St E – Gerrard St E
6 speed humps
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.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Apr 13, 2007.
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
Toronto Police place 11 thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 2 in 2023–2025, about 0.7 a year, against 1.3 a year before that. 82% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.

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.
