Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 22, 2025 · weekend
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 9,695 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 1 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (36 of 57). Evening rush dominates here: 1,847 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:15 p.m., against 1,236 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
Peak hours: 1,236 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,847 from 2:15 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
The worst year was 2017, with 11 collisions; 2025 recorded 9. 22 collisions (28%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 11 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 14% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 9 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (11%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 4 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Mar 16, 2026.
No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006. The police all-collisions file records 1 fatal collision here in 2016–2025; the KSI file, which is compiled separately and geocoded to the nearest leg, places it just outside the 65 m radius.

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.
