Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.
Traffic volume
The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Jan 13, 2026
The east leg carries the load — 11,924 westbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 1,592. Most cyclists arrived from the west (34 of 84). Morning rush is the busier period: 2,305 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:00 a.m., compared with 1,948 from 4:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.
Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.
How fast traffic moves here
Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming
The City's counter on Old Forest Hill Rd between Vesta Dr and Eglinton Ave W (162 m away) recorded an average of 42 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2021; 85% of drivers were at or under 49 km/h. That segment carries about 4,400 vehicles a day. Eglinton Ave W between Bathurst St and Peveril Hill N measured slower: 38 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 49 km/h (May 2025). The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Eglinton Ave W (118 m away, 50 km/h limit), 0.7% of the 78,113 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — almost none. 6 speed humps slow traffic on Old Forest Hill Road between Eglinton Ave W and Hilltop Rd, and 1 more calmed segment ends here.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
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 Nov 6, 2025. Going back to 2006, the total is 3.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.
Thefts reported at this corner
Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
Toronto Police place nine thefts from vehicles and five bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 2.3× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Nov 24, 2025.
