Traffic volume14-hour count · Jul 25, 2026 · weekend

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 4,936 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 33% of the total, against 2,214 from the east. Evening rush dominates here: 1,383 vehicles in the peak hour from 6:15 p.m., against 1,079 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.4% 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. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.

Peak hours: 1,079 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,383 from 6:15 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 2018, with 35 collisions; 2025 recorded 28. 30 collisions (13%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 18 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 8% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 17 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (8%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 22 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 16, 2026.

Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt; one collision involved vehicle occupants only. Both happened in darkness. The most recent was on Nov 27, 2022.

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.

Speeds here, last measured in 2013

On Bathurst St between Queens Quay W and Lake Shore Blvd W, 337 m from the corner, a 3-day count in June 2013 put the average speed at 32 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 42 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 45 km/h or more. That segment carries about 5,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 13 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

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.

Within a kilometre there are 13 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 2,558 rental units — seven social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 146 Fort York Blvd (341 m, 25 units, 7 storeys, built 2000), which scored 90 out of 100 at its September 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 93, above the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

13 registered buildings · 2,558 units · 7 social housing · tallest 46 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.

Two thefts from vehicles and ten bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 2.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 1.2 a year. 50% of the bike thefts were from other premises.

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 Harbourfront-CityPlace.
