Traffic volume14-hour count · Jun 25, 2025

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 13,933 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 32% of the total, against 9,080 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 3,993 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:15 p.m., against 3,465 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Trucks and buses were 5.5% 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 16 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 3,465 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 3,993 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

The worst year was 2018, with 127 collisions; 2025 recorded 88. 130 collisions (14%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 121 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 13% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 20 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (2%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 48 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 25, 2026.

One collision in 2016–2025 was fatal. It involved vehicle occupants only — no pedestrian or cyclist. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Jun 6, 2016. Going back to 2006, the total is 7.

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 Kennedy Rd between Transway Cres and Eglinton Ave E, 63 m from the corner, a 7-day count in July 2023 put the average speed at 31 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 42 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 47 km/h or more. That segment carries about 15,700 vehicles a day. At the school-zone speed sign on Kennedy Rd (174 m away, 50 km/h limit), 1.2% of the 258,134 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — a small minority.

Speed sign

Kennedy Rd (southbound), 174 m — 50 km/h zone. Median 36 km/h, 85th percentile 48 km/h; 1.2% at 60 km/h or more. 258,134 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 42 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 3,288 rental units, 2.8× the median for a Toronto intersection — three social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 807 Kennedy Rd (201 m, 34 units, 5 storeys, built 1969), which scored 94 out of 100 at its September 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 91, about the citywide norm.

42 registered buildings · 3,288 units · 3 social housing · tallest 14 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.

13 thefts from vehicles and six bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 3.2× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 1.9 a year. 46% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 50% of the bike thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots. Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on Mar 10, 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 Ionview.
