Traffic volume8-hour count · Oct 3, 2017
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 6,249 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 60% of the total, against 1,643 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the north (41 of 86). Evening rush dominates here: 1,637 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:15 p.m., against 944 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 9 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2017, 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: 944 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 1,637 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 2024, with 277 collisions; 2025 recorded 256. 190 collisions (14%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 141 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 10% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 7 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (1%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 159 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 25, 2026.
Of the five serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025, one was fatal. 2 pedestrians were among those hurt; 3 collisions involved vehicle occupants only. 3 of the 5 happened in darkness — 60%, above the citywide 39%. 2016 alone accounted for 2 of them. The last one inside the window was in 2025. Since January 2026, after the ranking window closed, 1 serious-injury collision has been recorded here, the latest on Aug 28, 2026. Going back to 2006, the total is 9. The police all-collisions file records 2 fatal collisions here in 2016–2025; the KSI file, which is compiled separately and geocoded to the nearest leg, places one of them 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 Jameson Ave between Springhurst Ave and King St W, 258 m from the corner, a 3-day count in April 2022 put the average speed at 37 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 44 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 49 km/h or more. That segment carries about 13,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Jameson Ave (276 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.1% of the 35,813 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.
