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 · Sep 11, 2024
Traffic is heaviest from the north: 20,511 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 93 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the south (158 of 272). Evening rush dominates here: 3,662 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 3,152 in the morning peak from 7:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 3,152 vehicles in the hour from 7:30 a.m. and 3,662 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 2017, with 60 collisions; 2025 recorded 33. 76 collisions (20%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 66 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 17% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 24 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (6%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 27 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 25, 2026.
No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 3 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Nov 11, 2011.

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.
