Traffic volume14-hour count · Jan 20, 2026

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 21,722 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 80% of the total, against 2,602 from the south. Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 2,192 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m., 9% above the afternoon peak from 4:15 p.m. (2,004). Heavy vehicles made up 3.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.

Peak hours: 2,192 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 2,004 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).

Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m

The peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 70 collisions. 38 collisions (9%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 41 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 9% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 14 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (3%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 37 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 15, 2026.

Of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025, one was fatal. 2 pedestrians were among those hurt. One of the two happened in darkness. The most recent was on Sep 19, 2025. Going back to 2006, the total is 3.

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 York St between Harbour St and Lakeshore E (64 m away, Sep 2012) recorded volume only — about 7,458 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.

  traffic signal · accessible signals

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.

Within a kilometre there are four RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 822 rental units. The nearest is 350 Queens Quay W (774 m, 228 units, 19 storeys, built 1987), which scored 98 out of 100 at its September 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 98, above the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

4 registered buildings · 822 units · tallest 21 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.

Six thefts from vehicles and 32 bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 6.3× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has picked up: 14 in 2023–2025, about 4.7 a year, against 3.4 a year before that. 67% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 47% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking.

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 St Lawrence-East Bayfront-The Islands.
