Traffic volume14-hour count · Jun 5, 2024

Traffic is heaviest from the west: 16,296 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 57% of the total, against 58 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the north (671 of 1,295). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,360 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,323 from 5:00 p.m. Trucks and buses were 8.9% 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 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 2,360 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,323 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 worst year was 2019, with 51 collisions; 2025 recorded 45. 50 collisions (13%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 33 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 8% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 2 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (1%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 23 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 22, 2026.

No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 3 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Aug 7, 2014.

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 2021

On Lower Sherbourne St between Gardiner W and The Esplanade, 299 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2021 put the average speed at 41 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 49 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 54 km/h or more. That segment carries about 5,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 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.

Within a kilometre there are 16 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 2,193 rental units — 14 social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 176 The Esplanade (386 m, 220 units, 7 storeys, built 2006), which scored 95 out of 100 at its November 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 87, below the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

16 registered buildings · 2,193 units · 14 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.

One theft from a vehicle and one bike theft were reported around this corner in 2016–2025.

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.
