Around the corner
Food premises, public washrooms, child care and emergency services — distances are straight-line from the node
Restaurants & food
No restaurant or café sits within 300 m of the corner; 1 eating place is within a kilometre — well below the median of 73 within a kilometre. The nearest is Le Petit Chaperon Rouge-Scarborough, 553 m away, which passed its last DineSafe inspection in May 2026.
| Nearest food premises | Distance | Latest DineSafe inspection |
|---|---|---|
| Le Petit Chaperon Rouge-Scarborough · 29 Meadowvale Rd | 553 m | Passed, May 2026 |
Every establishment Toronto Public Health inspects under DineSafe, screened by name to leave out kitchens inside schools, care homes and offices. A conditional pass means infractions had to be fixed by a follow-up visit, not that the premises is closed.
Washrooms & water
The nearest public washroom is Port Union Community Recreation Centre Washroom, 898 m away, View centre hours.
- Port Union Community Recreation Centre Washroom · 5450 Lawrence Ave E

Emergency services
The nearest fire hall is Fire Station 215 (224 m), the nearest police station 43 Division (2.0 km) and the nearest ambulance station 2.0 km away.
Nearest station by straight line — not a response time, and not necessarily the station that would answer a call.
Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 188 m away, ≈15 spaces; 223 m away, ≈52 spaces; 404 m away, ≈4 spaces; 442 m away, ≈5 spaces; 467 m away, ≈5 spaces; 477 m away, ≈86 spaces.
Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.
Traffic volume
The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Jun 1, 2023
The east leg carries the load — 3,164 westbound vehicles, or 47% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 246. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,068 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,065 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.
How fast traffic moves here
Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming
The City's counter on Cherryhill Ave between Rodarick Dr and Holmcrest Trl (167 m away) recorded an average of 39 km/h in its 24-hour count in September 2008; 85% of drivers were at or under 48 km/h. That segment carries about 600 vehicles a day. The reading is 18 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cherryhill Ave · Rodarick Dr – Holmcrest Trl · 167 m | Sep 2008 · 24 h | 638 | 39 km/h | 48 km/h | 52 km/h |
| Lawrence Ave E · Tredvalley Grv – Centennial Rd · 268 m | Nov 2011 · 3 days | 6,249 | — | — | — |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.
KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.
Thefts reported at this corner
Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
Toronto Police place two thefts from vehicles and two bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Reported | 2023–2025 | Since Jan 2026 | Most often from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theft from a vehicle | 2 | 0 | 0 | street/outdoor (1), other (1) |
| Bicycle theft | 2 | 0 | 0 | house driveway/garage (2) |
Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through May 22, 2022. 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 Centennial Scarborough.
