Glenwood & St Columba (South)

Traffic volume8-hour count · Jun 14, 2001

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 469 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 48% of the total, against 210 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 173 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:15 p.m., against 111 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 25 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2001, 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.

Peak hours: 111 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 173 from 4:15 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

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.

Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport.

One theft from a vehicle and no bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025.

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 O'Connor-Parkview.
