Eglinton & Kingston

Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 22, 2025 · weekend

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The east leg carries the load — 18,116 westbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 6,272. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 3,558 vehicles in the hour from 4:00 p.m., 51% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (2,362). Heavy vehicles made up 2.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

Peak hours: 2,362 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 3,558 from 4:00 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

2024 was the peak year (25 collisions), and 2025 closed with 20. 13% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 27 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 17% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 2% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 12 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 24, 2026.

One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. It involved vehicle occupants only — no pedestrian or cyclist. It happened in darkness. The most recent was on Sep 27, 2023. Going back to 2006, the total is 2.

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 2004

The City's counter on Kingston Rd between Fred Johnson Park Trl and Muir Dr (275 m away) recorded an average of 66 km/h in its 24-hour count in April 2004; 85% of drivers were at or under 73 km/h. That segment carries about 17,600 vehicles a day. The reading is 22 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

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.

Ten registered apartment buildings with 1,706 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, three of them social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 3400 Eglinton Ave E (241 m, 221 units, 16 storeys, built 1965), which scored 78 out of 100 at its July 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 84, below the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

10 registered buildings · 1,706 units · 3 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 22 thefts from vehicles and two bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 4.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 5 in 2023–2025, about 1.7 a year, against 2.7 a year before that. 64% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots. Since January 2026, 3 more have been reported, the latest on Jun 2, 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 Scarborough Village.
