Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Oct 1, 2025

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 13,578 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 59% of the total, against 5 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (87 of 169). Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 2,046 vehicles in the hour from 7:15 a.m., 11% above the afternoon peak from 7:00 p.m. (1,848). Heavy vehicles made up 4.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.

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

No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.

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

11 thefts from vehicles and one bike theft were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 2.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft.
