Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Jan 21, 2025
Traffic is heaviest from the north: 12,442 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 1,560 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 2,715 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 2,045 in the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. Trucks and buses were 5.6% 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 21 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 2,045 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 2,715 from 4:45 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 18 collisions; 2025 recorded 5. 26 collisions (24%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 12 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 7 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (6%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 9 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Aug 31, 2026.
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 cyclist was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Jul 7, 2022. Going back to 2006, the total is 4.

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 Keele St between Murray Ross Pkwy and The Pond Rd, 264 m from the corner, a 2-day count in September 2019 put the average speed at 69 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 77 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 109 km/h or more. That segment carries about 29,700 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Murray Ross Pkwy between Keele St and York University Busway measured slower: 40 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 47 km/h (May 2023).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Murray Ross Pkwy · Keele St – York University Busway · 92 m | May 2023 · 3 days | 6,543 | 40 km/h | 47 km/h | 52 km/h |
| Keele St · Murray Ross Pkwy – The Pond Rd · 264 m | Sep 2019 · 2 days | 29,701 | 69 km/h | 77 km/h | 109 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.
