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 · Jun 15, 2016
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 9,853 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 53% of the total, against 171 from the east. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,886 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 3,002 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 10 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2016, 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: 2,886 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 3,002 from 5:00 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 worst year was 2018, with 4 collisions; 2025 recorded 1. 4 collisions (21%) involved an injury. 4 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 21% of collisions.

The most recent report on file is from Apr 8, 2026.
No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Dec 16, 2007.

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 Kingsview Blvd between Lanni Crt and York Rd, 255 m from the corner, a 2-day count in April 2019 put the average speed at 44 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 53 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 59 km/h or more. That segment carries about 1,500 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on York Rd (378 m away, 30 km/h limit), 2.7% of the 10,655 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a small minority.
