Jane & Pritchard (North)

Traffic volume14-hour count · Oct 5, 2023

The south leg carries the load — 10,999 northbound vehicles, or 51% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 214. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,938 vehicles in the hour from 5:15 p.m., 11% above the morning peak from 7:30 a.m. (1,752). Trucks and buses were 5.5% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,752 vehicles in the hour from 7:30 a.m. and 1,938 from 5:15 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

2023 was the peak year (10 collisions), and 2025 closed with 3. 28% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 5 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 9% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 4 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jul 23, 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 Jan 17, 2014.

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 Jane St between Pritchard Ave and Lane N of Pritchard and E of Jane (22 m away) recorded an average of 44 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2024; 85% of drivers were at or under 53 km/h. That segment carries about 24,900 vehicles a day. Pritchard Ave between Lane N of St Clair and E of Batavia and Batavia Ave measured slower: 28 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 36 km/h (May 2025).

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.

15 registered apartment buildings with 1,915 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, three of them social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 230 Woolner Ave (341 m, 130 units, 9 storeys, built 1960), which scored 90 out of 100 at its November 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 91, about the citywide norm.

15 registered buildings · 1,915 units · 3 social housing · tallest 16 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 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. Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on Mar 22, 2026.

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 Rockcliffe-Smythe.
