Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · Apr 5, 2017
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 11,653 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 427 from the east. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,012 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 3,178 from 2:00 p.m. Trucks and buses were 9.3% 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. The count is 10 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2017, 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: 3,012 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 3,178 from 2:00 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

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.

The City's most recent midblock count on Markham Rd between Milner Ave and Rosebank Dr (114 m away, Sep 2014) recorded volume only — about 26,482 vehicles a day — with no speed data.
