Traffic volume8-hour count · Oct 9, 2003

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The east leg carries the load — 948 westbound vehicles, or 38% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 662. Most cyclists arrived from the west (123 of 286). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 421 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 48% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (284). Trucks and buses were 6.0% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 23 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2003, 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: 284 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 421 from 5:00 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

2018 was the peak year (5 collisions), and 2025 closed with 1. 0% of collisions here involved an injury. 5 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 36% of collisions. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. Since January 2026, 1 more collision has been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from May 31, 2026.

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

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.

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.

57 registered apartment buildings with 8,331 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, 25 of them social or Toronto Community Housing — 3.8× the median for a Toronto intersection. The nearest is 25 Elm St (239 m, 101 units, 16 storeys, built 1985), which scored 85 out of 100 at its June 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 90, about the citywide norm.

57 registered buildings · 8,331 units · 25 social housing · tallest 43 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 56 thefts from vehicles and 47 bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 17× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 10 in 2023–2025, about 3.3 a year, against 13.3 a year before that. 88% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 81% of the bike thefts were from school or campus property.

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 Downtown Yonge East.
