Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Oct 26, 2025 · weekend
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 12,519 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 42% of the total, against 4,903 from the east. Evening rush dominates here: 2,740 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:00 p.m., against 2,087 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Sunday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
Peak hours: 2,087 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 2,740 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).
