Live traffic camera
The City's RESCU camera at Sheppard Ave E & Leslie St — a 320 × 240 still the City replaces every few minutes, with the frame's age and its four fixed reference views
The City's own feed for Leslie & Sheppard, published as a 320 × 240 still that its server replaces every few minutes — the card checks for a new frame every 45 seconds while you are on the page (Reload checks now) and says whether the frame changed. The fixed views are the City's reference stills showing where the camera points in each direction.

Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking

|---|---|---|---|
| Leslie Lot - 2760 Old Leslie Street · Surface | 321 m | 102 * | — |
| Don Mills Lot - 1800 Sheppard Ave East · Surface | 1.5 km | 366 * | — |
Nearest lots: 118 m away, ≈165 spaces; 140 m away, ≈2 spaces; 145 m away, ≈9 spaces; 150 m away, ≈6 spaces; 162 m away, ≈13 spaces; 178 m away, ≈28 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 — 14-hour, Nov 15, 2025 (a weekend day)
The west leg carries the load — 14,812 eastbound vehicles, or 32% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 9,608. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 4,035 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 4,166 from 4:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 0.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.
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 most recent midblock count on Leslie St between Leslie N and Sheppard Ave E (41 m away, Oct 2014) recorded volume only — about 20,261 vehicles a day — with no speed data.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Leslie St · Leslie N – Sheppard Ave E · 41 m | Oct 2014 · 7 days | 20,261 | — | — | — |
| Sheppard Ave E · Old Leslie St – Leslie St · 57 m | Sep 2014 · 7 days | 20,241 | — | — | — |
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.
All police-reported collisions
Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025
2016 was the peak year (94 collisions), and 2025 closed with 42. 16% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 32 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 6% of collisions, below the citywide 16%.

The most recent report on file is from Jun 13, 2026.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 2 pedestrians were among those hurt. The most recent was on Aug 5, 2023.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |

| Involving a cyclist | 0 | |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 0 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 2 | latest Aug 5, 2023 |
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
