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 — 14-hour, Oct 15, 2025

The west leg carries the load — 6,216 eastbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 785. Most cyclists arrived from the east (865 of 1,950). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,016 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,091 from 4:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

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 most recent midblock count on Mutual St between Frank Natale Lane and Gould St (118 m away, Sep 2007) recorded volume only — about 2,161 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Mutual St · Frank Natale Lane – Gould St · 118 mSep 2007 · 3 days2,161
Dundas St E · Jarvis St – George St · 137 mMar 2021 · 7 days4,288

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 Sep 30, 2014.

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 55 thefts from vehicles and 39 bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 16× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft.

Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on Jan 27, 2026.
