Dundas & Regent Park

Traffic volume8-hour count · Mar 1, 2022

The west leg carries the load — 3,864 eastbound vehicles, or 66% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 1,995. Most cyclists arrived from the east (135 of 248). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 852 vehicles in the hour from 2:00 p.m., 12% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (763). Heavy vehicles made up 4.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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.

Peak hours: 763 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 852 from 2:00 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 (9 collisions), and 2025 closed with 6. 14% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 9 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 24% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 11% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 3 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Aug 12, 2026.

One collision in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Jun 20, 2019.

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.

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.

53 registered apartment buildings with 5,837 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, 37 of them social or Toronto Community Housing — 3.5× the median for a Toronto intersection. The nearest is 50 Regent Park Blvd (104 m, 155 units, 9 storeys), which scored 92 out of 100 at its June 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. One building of the 53 scored below 70; the average is 88, about the citywide norm.

53 registered buildings · 5,837 units · 37 social housing · tallest 29 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.

Toronto Police place ten thefts from vehicles and nine bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 3.2× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has picked up: 7 in 2023–2025, about 2.3 a year, against 1.7 a year before that. 80% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 67% of the bike 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. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see Regent Park.
