Kipling & Jutland

Traffic volume8-hour count · Feb 8, 2022

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 8,014 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 46% of the total, against 1,666 from the east. Evening rush dominates here: 2,626 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:15 p.m., against 2,064 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Trucks and buses were 6.4% 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 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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: 2,064 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,626 from 4:15 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 2019, with 24 collisions; 2025 recorded 17. 27 collisions (14%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 15 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 8% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 6 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (3%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 14 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 24, 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 Nov 1, 2016. Going back to 2006, the total is 3. 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.

Speeds here, last measured in 2019

On Kipling Ave between Warnica Ave and North Queen St, 305 m from the corner, a 2-day count in September 2019 put the average speed at 55 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 63 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 69 km/h or more. That segment carries about 13,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 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.

Five thefts from vehicles and no bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 60% of the vehicle thefts were from commercial premises — shops, offices and their lots.

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 Etobicoke City Centre.
