Jane & Church

Traffic volume14-hour count · Oct 29, 2024

The north leg carries the load — 16,446 southbound vehicles, or 42% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 3,210. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,334 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 3,392 from 4:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 3,334 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 3,392 from 4:30 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

2022 was the peak year (38 collisions), and 2025 closed with 25. 19% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 37 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 13% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 5% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 11 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 23, 2026.

Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 pedestrian and 1 motorcyclist were among those hurt. The most recent was on Nov 30, 2023. 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.

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.

20 registered apartment buildings with 1,826 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, four of them social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 1860 Jane St (81 m, 40 units, 4 storeys, built 1954), which scored 92 out of 100 at its September 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 87, below the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

20 registered buildings · 1,826 units · 4 social housing · tallest 28 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.

Toronto Police place 12 thefts from vehicles and two bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 2.3× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 1.4 a year. 67% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.

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 Rustic.
