Eglinton & Harvie

Traffic volume8-hour count · Apr 26, 2023

The west leg carries the load — 4,420 eastbound vehicles, or 43% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 417. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,536 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 14% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (1,347). Trucks and buses were 6.6% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 4 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since. 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: 1,347 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,536 from 4:45 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

2017 was the peak year (5 collisions), and 2025 closed with 4. 18% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 5 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 18% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%.

The most recent report on file is from Aug 23, 2026.

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

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 2020

The City's counter on Harvie Ave between Redhill Ave and Carrington Ave (346 m away) recorded an average of 24 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2020; 85% of drivers were at or under 32 km/h. That segment carries about 2,000 vehicles a day.

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.

25 registered apartment buildings with 1,611 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, five of them social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 2040 Eglinton Ave W (45 m, 37 units, 4 storeys, built 1950), which scored 99 out of 100 at its July 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 86, below the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

25 registered buildings · 1,611 units · 5 social housing · tallest 21 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 five thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 60% 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.
