Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Nov 26, 2024

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The north leg carries the load — 9,837 southbound vehicles, or 56% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 310. Most cyclists arrived from the south (48 of 92). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,575 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,612 from 5:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 21 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

The City's counter on Keele St between Dunraven Dr and Donald Ave (357 m away) recorded an average of 39 km/h in its 3-day count in March 2026; 85% of drivers were at or under 49 km/h. That segment carries about 20,800 vehicles a day. Ypres Rd between Scott Rd and Lane E of Keele and N of Ypres measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 44 km/h (Mar 2015). At the school-zone speed sign on Keele St (211 m away, 50 km/h limit), 1.2% of the 80,452 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — a small minority.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.

Thefts reported at this corner

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025

Toronto Police place three thefts from vehicles and one bicycle theft at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft.
