Hwy 27 N & Rexdale Blvd

Traffic volume8-hour count · Dec 17, 2022 · weekend

The east leg carries the load — 4,857 westbound vehicles, or 30% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 3,139. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,807 vehicles in the hour from 2:00 p.m., 161% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (1,074). Heavy vehicles made up 2.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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: 1,074 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,807 from 2:00 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

2019 was the peak year (30 collisions), and 2025 closed with 14. 21% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 17 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 1% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 8 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 29, 2026.

None of the three serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. All of them involved vehicle occupants only — no pedestrians or cyclists. 2 of the 3 happened in darkness — 67%, above the citywide 39%. The last one inside the window was in 2025. Since January 2026, after the ranking window closed, 1 serious-injury collision has been recorded here (1 pedestrian involved), the latest on Jan 4, 2026. Going back to 2006, the total is 6.

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

The City's counter on Rexdale Blvd between Hwy 27 S and Sunny's Halo Trl (210 m away) recorded an average of 60 km/h in its 3-day count in March 2026; 85% of drivers were at or under 69 km/h. That segment carries about 24,200 vehicles a day.

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.

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.

Toronto Police place three thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — below the median of 6 for an intersection with any reported theft.

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 West Humber-Clairville.
