Live traffic camera
The City's RESCU camera at Strachan Ave & East Liberty St / Ordnance St — a 320 × 240 still the City replaces every few minutes, with the frame's age and its four fixed reference views
The City's own feed for East Liberty & Strachan, published as a 320 × 240 still that its server replaces every few minutes — the card checks for a new frame every 45 seconds while you are on the page (Reload checks now) and says whether the frame changed. The fixed views are the City's reference stills showing where the camera points in each direction.

Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
18 registered apartment buildings with 3,993 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, nine of them social or Toronto Community Housing.

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 — 14-hour, Jul 9, 2026
The south leg carries the load — 7,323 northbound vehicles, or 36% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 1,794. Most cyclists arrived from the north (1,219 of 3,045). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,905 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 33% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (1,433). Heavy vehicles made up 2.7% 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 counter on Strachan Ave between East Liberty St and Wellington St W (54 m away) recorded an average of 33 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 42 km/h. That segment carries about 10,100 vehicles a day. East Liberty St between Gateway Park Trl and Pirandello St measured slower: 34 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 42 km/h (Apr 2022). The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Strachan Ave · East Liberty St – Wellington St W · 54 m | Nov 2022 · 3 days | 10,058 | 33 km/h | 42 km/h | 47 km/h |
| East Liberty St · Gateway Park Trl – Pirandello St · 182 m | Apr 2022 · 3 days | 8,387 | 34 km/h | 42 km/h | 46 km/h |
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.
All police-reported collisions
Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 pedestrian and 1 cyclist were among those hurt. One of the two happened in darkness. The most recent was on Mar 5, 2025.

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

Since January 2026, 2 more have been reported, the latest on Jan 7, 2026.
