Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets, and the red-light camera
Traffic volume14-hour count · Apr 13, 2025 · weekend
Traffic is heaviest from the north: 8,919 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 38% of the total, against 3,727 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the east (50 of 117). Evening rush dominates here: 2,285 vehicles in the peak hour from 3:45 p.m., against 1,894 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.4% 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. The count is 18 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 1,894 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 2,285 from 3:45 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 worst year was 2016, with 59 collisions; 2025 recorded 39. 68 collisions (16%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 41 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 9% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 6 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (1%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 38 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 17, 2026.
Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 cyclist was among those hurt; one collision involved vehicle occupants only. One of the two happened in darkness. The most recent was on Oct 2, 2022. Going back to 2006, the total is 4. The police all-collisions file records 2 fatal collisions here in 2016–2025; the KSI file, which is compiled separately and geocoded to the nearest leg, places them just outside the 65 m radius.

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.
Speeds here, last measured in 2019
On Islington Ave between Judson St and Evans Ave, 289 m from the corner, a 2-day count in September 2019 put the average speed at 58 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 65 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 70 km/h or more. That segment carries about 16,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Evans Ave between Garroch Pl and Ourland Ave measured slower: 50 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 58 km/h (Apr 2019).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Evans Ave · Garroch Pl – Ourland Ave · 281 m | Apr 2019 · 3 days | 10,105 | 50 km/h | 58 km/h | 63 km/h |
| Islington Ave · Judson St – Evans Ave · 289 m | Sep 2019 · 2 days | 15,968 | 58 km/h | 65 km/h | 70 km/h |
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.
