LTB orders are final Landlord and Tenant Board orders naming the address (Jan 2026 – Jun 2026); fire-code violations are open items in Toronto Fire Services' inspection data.

Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.
Traffic volume
The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Oct 20, 2024 (a weekend day)
Traffic is heaviest from the east: 6,788 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 36% of the total, against 1,931 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 1,786 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:45 p.m., against 1,357 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Sunday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.
How fast traffic moves here
Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming
On Southwood Dr between Cavendish St and Glen Stewart Cres, 138 m from the corner, a 3-day count in March 2020 put the average speed at 39 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 45 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 49 km/h or more. That segment carries about 5,000 vehicles a day. Main St between Benlamond Ave and Swanwick Ave measured slower: 35 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 42 km/h (May 2026). The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Main St (342 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.5% of the 124,418 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

School-zone speed sign 342 m
Main St (northbound), 91 Main Street · 124,418 vehicles logged in July 2026 · runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.
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.
All police-reported collisions
Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025
The worst year was 2019, with 37 collisions; 2025 recorded 30. 27 collisions (9%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 41 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 14% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 13 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (4%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 17 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 21, 2026.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Aug 10, 2018. Going back to 2006, the total is 2.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 1 | #1080 of 1,505 |
| Fatal | 0 | |
| Involving a pedestrian | 1 | #615 of 879 |

| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 0 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 2 | latest Aug 10, 2018 |
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
Nine thefts from vehicles and 12 bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 3.5× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 3 in 2023–2025, about 1.0 a year, against 2.6 a year before that. 78% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 50% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theft from a vehicle | 9 | 1 | 0 | street/outdoor (7), apartment parking (1) |

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Aug 18, 2024. 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.
