Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 12, 2024

Traffic is heaviest from the west: 19,968 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 58% of the total, against 2,336 from the north. Most cyclists arrived from the south (164 of 369). Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 3,108 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 24% above the afternoon peak from 7:00 p.m. (2,502). Trucks and buses were 7.9% 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 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 3,108 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,502 from 7:00 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 worst year was 2017, with 195 collisions; 2025 recorded 109. 165 collisions (12%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 152 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 17 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (1%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 95 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 26, 2026.

Of the nine serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025, three were fatal. 5 pedestrians, 1 cyclist and 1 motorcyclist were among those hurt; 2 collisions involved vehicle occupants only. 5 of the 9 happened in darkness — 56%, above the citywide 39%. 2023 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 (1 cyclist involved), the latest on Jul 15, 2026. Going back to 2006, the total is 16.

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 Lower Jarvis St between Lakeshore W and Wilton St, 175 m from the corner, a 3-day count in April 2025 put the average speed at 30 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 40 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 45 km/h or more. That segment carries about 23,600 vehicles a day.

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.

Within a kilometre there are 16 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 2,023 rental units — 12 social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 99 Lake Shore Blvd E (148 m, 205 units, 11 storeys, built 2023), which scored 98 out of 100 at its June 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 88, about the citywide norm.

16 registered buildings · 2,023 units · 12 social housing · tallest 13 storeys. The score is the City's RentSafeTO evaluation out of 100; buildings of three or more storeys and ten or more units are registered, condominiums and houses are not. Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport.

Two thefts from vehicles and nine bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. The pace has picked up: 4 in 2023–2025, about 1.3 a year, against 1.0 a year before that. 67% of the bike thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.

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 St Lawrence-East Bayfront-The Islands.
