Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Jun 13, 2019

The north leg carries the load — 4,366 southbound vehicles, or 37% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 1,320. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,860 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,790 from 5:00 p.m. Trucks and buses were 8.2% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2019, 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.

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 counter on Ridelle Ave between Newgate Rd and Marlee Ave (35 m away) recorded an average of 36 km/h in its 24-hour count in December 2012; 85% of drivers were at or under 47 km/h. That segment carries about 2,600 vehicles a day. Marlee Ave between Beltline Trl and Roselawn Ave measured slower: 32 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Apr 2026). The reading is 14 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Danesbury Ave (327 m away, 30 km/h limit), 0.6% of the 22,063 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — almost none.

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.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

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

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

Toronto Police place seven thefts from vehicles and one bicycle theft at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 57% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.
