Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Apr 16, 2025
The east leg carries the load — 11,140 westbound vehicles, or 45% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 1,469. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,333 vehicles in the hour from 3:45 p.m., 10% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (2,126). Trucks and buses were 6.7% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 18 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 2,126 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,333 from 3:45 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
Toronto Police recorded no collisions of any severity within 65 m of this intersection in 2016–2025.
The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 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.
