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, Mar 20, 2008
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The east leg carries the load — 5,258 westbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 133. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,953 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 36% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,435). Heavy vehicles made up 1.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 19 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2008, 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 counter on Gerrard St E between Main St and Lane E of Main St and S of Gerrard (92 m away) recorded an average of 37 km/h in its 3-day count in January 2023; 85% of drivers were at or under 45 km/h. That segment carries about 12,000 vehicles a day. Kimberley Ave between Lane N of Swanwick and E of Kimberley and Gerrard St E measured slower: 30 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 42 km/h (Apr 2008). At the school-zone speed sign on Main St (155 m away, 40 km/h limit), 1.6% of the 155,484 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority. 2 speed humps slow traffic on Kimberley Avenue between Gerrard St E and Swanwick Ave.

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
2019 was the peak year (6 collisions), and 2025 closed with 4. 10% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 4 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 14% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.
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
Toronto Police place six thefts from vehicles and six bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 2.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 1 in 2023–2025, about 0.3 a year, against 1.6 a year before that. 50% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 50% of the bike thefts were from other premises.
By year

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theft from a vehicle | 6 | 1 | 0 | street/outdoor (3), other (2) |

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Oct 1, 2024. 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.
