Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Jun 11, 2024

The west leg carries the load — 12,293 eastbound vehicles, or 41% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 2,457. Most cyclists arrived from the east (98 of 228). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,632 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,739 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

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 Bridletowne Crcl and Warden Ave (288 m away, Oct 2014) recorded volume only — about 27,051 vehicles a day — with no speed data. At the school-zone speed sign on Finch Ave E (110 m away, 50 km/h limit), 1.1% of the 61,989 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — a small minority.

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.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 5 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Dec 24, 2014.

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.

Thefts reported at this corner

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025

The pace has been steady at around 1.0 a year. 44% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots. Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on Feb 4, 2026.
