Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Mar 24, 2026
Traffic is heaviest from the east: 12,703 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 16 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 2,338 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:15 p.m., against 2,054 in the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. Trucks and buses were 5.6% 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. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
Peak hours: 2,054 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 2,338 from 5:15 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 2022, with 9 collisions; 2025 recorded 6. 12 collisions (21%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 14 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 25% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 1 collision involved a pedestrian or cyclist (2%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 4 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 11, 2026.
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 motorcyclist was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Aug 3, 2019. Going back to 2006, the total is 2.

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.
