Emergency services
The nearest fire hall is Fire Station 242 (1.0 km), the nearest police station 42 Division (4.2 km) and the nearest ambulance station 1.5 km away.
Nearest station by straight line — not a response time, and not necessarily the station that would answer a call.
Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 84 m away, ≈112 spaces; 88 m away, ≈53 spaces; 128 m away, ≈8 spaces; 160 m away, ≈294 spaces; 199 m away, ≈3 spaces; 202 m away, ≈29 spaces.
Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.
Traffic volume
The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Nov 21, 2000
Traffic is heaviest from the east: 9,507 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 378 from the south. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,753 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,858 from 4:30 p.m. Trucks and buses were 5.3% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 26 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2000, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.
How fast traffic moves here
Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming
The City's most recent midblock count on Finch Ave E between East Highland Creek Trl and Midland Ave (188 m away, Oct 2011) recorded volume only — about 18,586 vehicles a day — with no speed data.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Finch Ave E · East Highland Creek Trl – Midland Ave · 188 m | Oct 2011 · 3 days | 18,586 | — | — | — |
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.
All police-reported collisions
Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025
The worst year was 2017, with 31 collisions; 2025 recorded 17. 17 collisions (9%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 64 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 34% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 3 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (2%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 14 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 14, 2026.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Nov 10, 2020.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |

| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 0 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 1 | latest Nov 10, 2020 |
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.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Feb 28, 2026.

Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see Agincourt South-Malvern West.
