Eastwood & Kingsmount Park

Traffic volume8-hour count · Nov 8, 2016

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 1,229 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 60% of the total, against 79 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the west (48 of 83). Evening rush dominates here: 447 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 344 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 10 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2016, 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: 344 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 447 from 5:00 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

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

On Eastwood Rd between Kingsmount Park Rd and Glenmore Rd, 34 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2022 put the average speed at 27 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 33 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 37 km/h or more. That segment carries about 2,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

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.

Within a kilometre there are 31 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 1,524 rental units, 2.1× the median for a Toronto intersection — 12 social or Toronto Community Housing.

31 registered buildings · 1,524 units · 12 social housing · tallest 9 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.

Four thefts from vehicles and two bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on Jan 11, 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 Woodbine Corridor.
