Lillian & Soudan

Traffic volume14-hour count · Jul 22, 2025

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The east leg carries the load — 2,308 westbound vehicles, or 50% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 924. Most cyclists arrived from the east (116 of 269). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 453 vehicles in the hour from 5:45 p.m., 16% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (391). Heavy vehicles made up 2.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 15 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 391 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 453 from 5:45 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

The peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 5 collisions. 6% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 9 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 27% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%.

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

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.

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.

66 registered apartment buildings with 10,126 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, seven of them social or Toronto Community Housing — 4.4× the median for a Toronto intersection. The nearest is 44 Lillian St (86 m, 296 units, 25 storeys, built 2019), which scored 98 out of 100 at its July 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. One building of the 66 scored below 70; the average is 92, about the citywide norm.

66 registered buildings · 10,126 units · 7 social housing · tallest 39 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 19 thefts from vehicles and 17 bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 6.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has picked up: 19 in 2023–2025, about 6.3 a year, against 2.4 a year before that. 74% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 41% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking. Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on Apr 27, 2026.

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 South Eglinton-Davisville.
