Traffic volume8-hour count · Aug 27, 2007

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 933 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 77% of the total, against 276 from the west. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 197 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 192 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 0.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 19 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2007, 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: 197 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 192 from 4:45 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 2018, with 3 collisions; 2025 recorded 1. 0 collisions (0%) involved an injury. 4 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 44% of collisions. 1 collision involved a pedestrian or cyclist (11%). The most recent report on file is from Oct 31, 2025.

One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Feb 2, 2024. 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.

How fast traffic moves here

On Maitland Pl between Homewood Ave and Jarvis St, 200 m from the corner, a 3-day count in November 2017 put the average speed at 32 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 42 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 47 km/h or more. That segment carries about 2,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Mutual St between Alexander St and Maitland St measured slower: 21 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 29 km/h (Sep 2026) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Mutual St (107 m away, 30 km/h limit), 0.2% of the 48,303 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — almost none.

Speed sign

Mutual St (southbound), 107 m — 30 km/h zone. Median 21 km/h, 85th percentile 29 km/h; 0.2% at 40 km/h or more. 48,303 vehicles logged in August 2026; runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.

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.

Within a kilometre there are 125 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 16,902 rental units, 8.3× the median for a Toronto intersection — 23 social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 100 Maitland St (51 m, 102 units, 18 storeys, built 1965), which scored 93 out of 100 at its November 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. Three buildings of the 125 scored below 70; the average is 88, about the citywide norm.

125 registered buildings · 16,902 units · 23 social housing · tallest 43 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.

Five thefts from vehicles and six bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. The pace has picked up: 4 in 2023–2025, about 1.3 a year, against 1.0 a year before that. 80% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 67% of the bike thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.

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 Church-Wellesley.
