Faywood & Wilson

Traffic volume14-hour count · Jul 25, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The east leg carries the load — 11,889 westbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 919. Most cyclists arrived from the east (95 of 143). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,177 vehicles in the hour from 5:30 p.m., 31% above the morning peak from 9:15 a.m. (1,666). Trucks and buses were 5.5% 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 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,666 vehicles in the hour from 9:15 a.m. and 2,177 from 5:30 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

2024 was the peak year (16 collisions), and 2025 closed with 10. 11% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 16 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 17% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 6% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 15 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 2, 2026.

Of the three serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025, one was fatal. 1 pedestrian and 1 cyclist were among those hurt; one collision involved vehicle occupants only. All happened in daylight or lit conditions (citywide, 39% of KSI collisions occur in darkness). 2017 alone accounted for 2 of them. The most recent was on Jan 29, 2025. Going back to 2006, the total is 4.

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

The City's counter on Wilson Ave between Delahaye St and Allingham Gdns (349 m away) recorded an average of 42 km/h in its 3-day count in February 2026; 85% of drivers were at or under 54 km/h. That segment carries about 23,600 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.

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.

17 registered apartment buildings with 1,013 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, three of them social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 2 Faywood Blvd (100 m, 40 units, 3 storeys, built 1989), which scored 96 out of 100 at its July 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 91, about the citywide norm.

17 registered buildings · 1,013 units · 3 social housing · tallest 17 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.

Toronto Police place ten thefts from vehicles and 14 bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 4.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 2.4 a year. 60% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 86% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking. Since January 2026, 2 more have been reported, the latest on May 17, 2026.

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 Clanton Park.
