Traffic volume14-hour count · Jan 28, 2025

Traffic is heaviest from the west: 3,320 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 35% of the total, against 1,660 from the south. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 791 vehicles in the hour from 9:00 a.m. and 808 from 5:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 21 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 791 vehicles in the hour from 9:00 a.m. and 808 from 5:15 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

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

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 29 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 5,637 rental units — 14 social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 150 Elizabeth St (71 m, 250 units, 17 storeys, built 2011), which scored 85 out of 100 at its December 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 90, about the citywide norm.

29 registered buildings · 5,637 units · 14 social housing · tallest 43 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.

Seven thefts from vehicles and seven bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 2.3× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 1.4 a year. 100% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 57% of the bike thefts were from other premises.

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 Yonge-Bay Corridor.
