Eglinton & Ennerdale

Traffic volume8-hour count · Mar 21, 2012

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 4,696 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 48% of the total, against 709 from the south. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,468 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,499 from 4:30 p.m. Trucks and buses were 7.7% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 15 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2012, 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: 1,468 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,499 from 4:30 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 peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 19 collisions. 20 collisions (17%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 29 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 25% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 4 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (3%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 12 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 10, 2026.

One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Jun 13, 2019. Going back to 2006, the total is 3.

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.

Speeds here, last measured in 2021

On Ennerdale Rd between Dynevor Rd and Harlow Ave, 344 m from the corner, a 3-day count in October 2021 put the average speed at 39 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 48 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 54 km/h or more. That segment carries about 900 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 3 speed humps slow traffic on Ennerdale Road between Eglinton Ave W and Branstone Rd (installed 2023).

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.

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 — 2,031 rental units, 2.1× the median for a Toronto intersection — six social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 1969 Eglinton Ave W (95 m, 36 units, 3 storeys, built 1963), which scored 79 out of 100 at its September 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 86, below the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

31 registered buildings · 2,031 units · 6 social housing · tallest 16 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.

Five thefts from vehicles and four bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 100% of the vehicle 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 Caledonia-Fairbank.
