Traffic volume8-hour count · Dec 18, 2019

Traffic is heaviest from the south: 5,335 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 63 from the east. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,567 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,619 from 4:00 p.m. Trucks and buses were 9.0% 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 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2019, 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: 1,567 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,619 from 4:00 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 2018, with 6 collisions; 2025 recorded 4. 7 collisions (20%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 7 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 20% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 2 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (6%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 5 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Apr 18, 2026.

One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. It involved vehicle occupants only — no pedestrian or cyclist. It happened in darkness. The most recent was on Jun 30, 2024.

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.

Speeds here, last measured in 2006

On Kennedy Rd between Treverton Dr and Landseer Rd, 86 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in March 2006 put the average speed at 60 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 73 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 79 km/h or more. That segment carries about 25,300 vehicles a day. The reading is 20 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

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 29 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 2,223 rental units. The nearest is 821 Kennedy Rd (57 m, 59 units, 6 storeys, built 1961), which scored 83 out of 100 at its September 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 91, about the citywide norm.

29 registered buildings · 2,223 units · 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.

14 thefts from vehicles and one bike theft were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 2.5× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 1.5 a year. 64% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots. Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on Jun 19, 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.
