Traffic volume14-hour count · Apr 13, 2025 · weekend
Traffic is heaviest from the east: 9,754 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 29% of the total, against 6,346 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the east (34 of 80). Evening rush dominates here: 3,768 vehicles in the peak hour from 3:45 p.m., against 1,997 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 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 18 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 1,997 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 3,768 from 3:45 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 2016, with 74 collisions; 2025 recorded 57. 81 collisions (15%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 47 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 8% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 8 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (1%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 30 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 20, 2026.
No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Jul 3, 2010.

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, 312 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.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Queensway · Stock Ave – Kipling Ave · 53 m | Sep 2012 · 3 days | 20,480 | — | — | — |
| Kipling Ave · Warnica Ave – North Queen St · 312 m | Sep 2019 · 2 days | 12,976 | 55 km/h | 63 km/h | 69 km/h |
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.
