Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 4, 2025

The south leg carries the load — 13,927 northbound vehicles, or 41% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 3,882. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,015 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,823 from 7:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

Peak hours: 3,015 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,823 from 7:00 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

2019 was the peak year (78 collisions), and 2025 closed with 62. 11% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 83 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 14% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 4% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 40 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 26, 2026.

Of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025, one was fatal. 2 pedestrians were among those hurt. The most recent was on Jul 20, 2017.

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.

Traffic on these streets

The City's most recent midblock count on Spadina Ave between Bremner Blvd and Blue Jays Way (45 m away, Sep 2009) recorded volume only — about 47,896 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

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.

12 registered apartment buildings with 2,869 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, three of them social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 450 Front St W (422 m, 592 units, 46 storeys, built 2023), which scored 100 out of 100 at its July 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 97, above the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

12 registered buildings · 2,869 units · 3 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.

Toronto Police place three thefts from vehicles and 15 bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 3.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 2 in 2023–2025, about 0.7 a year, against 2.3 a year before that. 60% of the bike thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots. Since January 2026, 2 more have been reported, the latest on Feb 8, 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 Harbourfront-CityPlace.
