Keele & Vine

Traffic volume14-hour count · Jul 15, 2025

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 13,325 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 52% of the total, against 578 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the south (323 of 637). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,989 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,143 from 4:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 15 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,989 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,143 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).

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.

Within a kilometre there are seven RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 146 rental units — two social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 2861-2863 Dundas St W (175 m, 16 units, 3 storeys, built 1960), which scored 92 out of 100 at its August 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. One building of the 7 scored below 70; the average is 83, below the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

7 registered buildings · 146 units · 2 social housing · tallest 6 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.

18 thefts from vehicles and 31 bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 8.2× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 4.9 a year. 61% of the vehicle thefts were from apartment-building parking; 74% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking. Since January 2026, 2 more have been reported, the latest on Jun 20, 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 Junction Area.
