Lauder & Rogers

Traffic volume8-hour count · Feb 21, 1989

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The west leg carries the load — 3,227 eastbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 1,108. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,138 vehicles in the hour from 4:15 p.m., 18% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (963). Heavy vehicles made up 4.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 38 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 1989, 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: 963 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 1,138 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 peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 2 collisions. 17% of collisions here involved an injury. 2 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 17% of collisions. People walking or cycling were involved in 8% of collisions here. The most recent report on file is from Dec 5, 2025.

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

The City's counter on Rogers Rd between Glenholme Ave and Lauder Ave (51 m away) recorded an average of 41 km/h in its 24-hour count in November 2013; 85% of drivers were at or under 50 km/h. That segment carries about 10,600 vehicles a day. The reading is 13 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Lauder Ave between Genessee Ave and Amherst Ave measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 42 km/h (Jun 2024) — a much more recent reading than the one above.

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.

21 registered apartment buildings with 890 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner. The nearest is 375 Westmount Ave (264 m, 30 units, 3 storeys, built 1953), which scored 88 out of 100 at its July 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation.

21 registered buildings · 890 units · tallest 10 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.

Toronto Police place two thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection 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 Oakwood Village.
