Keele & Humberside

Traffic volume8-hour count · Feb 1, 2022

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 5,095 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 473 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 1,614 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 1,470 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Trucks and buses were 6.2% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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: 1,470 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,614 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 2023, with 11 collisions; 2025 recorded 10. 12 collisions (16%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 8 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 3 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (4%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 8 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 25, 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 Sep 25, 2015.

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 Humberside Ave between Lane W of Indian Rd and S of Humberside and Lane E of Indian Road Cres and S of Humberside, 276 m from the corner, a 3-day count in October 2023 put the average speed at 32 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 39 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 44 km/h or more. That segment carries about 2,500 vehicles a day. At the school-zone speed sign on Indian Road Cres (230 m away, 30 km/h limit), 2.8% of the 18,708 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a small minority.

Speed sign

Indian Road Cres (northbound), 230 m — 30 km/h zone. Median 22 km/h, 85th percentile 33 km/h; 2.8% at 40 km/h or more. 18,708 vehicles logged in August 2026; runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.

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.

Within a kilometre there are 24 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 3,782 rental units — six social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 205 Keele St (258 m, 42 units, 4 storeys, built 1958), which scored 88 out of 100 at its August 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. One building of the 24 scored below 70; the average is 91, about the citywide norm.

24 registered buildings · 3,782 units · 6 social housing · tallest 30 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.

Three thefts from vehicles and one bike theft were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft.

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 High Park North.
