Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · Mar 29, 2006
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 603 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 186 from the west. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 221 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 206 from 4:00 p.m. Trucks and buses were 12.4% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 21 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2006, 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: 221 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 206 from 4:00 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
The peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 9 collisions. 10 collisions (18%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 11 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 20% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 8 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (15%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 6 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 22, 2026.
No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 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.
How fast traffic moves here
On Grenoble Dr between Vendome Pl and Flemingdon Park Trl, 139 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in December 2005 put the average speed at 43 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 52 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 58 km/h or more. That segment carries about 2,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 21 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Grenoble Dr (333 m away, 40 km/h limit), 1.9% of the 74,479 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — a small minority.
