Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 18, 2023 · weekend

Traffic is heaviest from the west: 5,622 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 565 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 1,792 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:00 p.m., against 1,138 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,138 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 1,792 from 2:00 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

The worst year was 2019, with 24 collisions; 2025 recorded 5. 21 collisions (13%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 31 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 19% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 10 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (6%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 9 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 12, 2026.

Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 2 motorcyclists were among those hurt. The most recent was on Jul 30, 2023.

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.

How fast traffic moves here

On Lake Shore Blvd E between Emdaabiimok Ave and Northern Dancer Blvd, 213 m from the corner, a 3-day count in October 2026 put the average speed at 55 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 64 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 69 km/h or more. That segment carries about 19,300 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.

11 thefts from vehicles and seven bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 3.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft.
