Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Mar 19, 2025
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 13,841 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 44% of the total, against 347 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 2,919 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 2,168 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 19 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 2,168 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,919 from 5:00 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 peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 31 collisions. 22 collisions (11%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 24 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 12% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 5 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (3%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 21 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 29, 2026.
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 motorcyclist was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on May 2, 2018. Going back to 2006, the total is 2. The police all-collisions file records 1 fatal collision here in 2016–2025; the KSI file, which is compiled separately and geocoded to the nearest leg, places it just outside the 65 m radius.

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 Rylander Blvd between Tall Pines Park Trl and Carlisle Cres, 274 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in November 2010 put the average speed at 46 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 55 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 61 km/h or more. That segment carries about 5,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 16 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Durnford Rd (237 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.0% of the 35,424 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.
