Marlee & Roselawn

Traffic volume8-hour count · Jul 18, 2023

The west leg carries the load — 3,110 eastbound vehicles, or 28% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 2,174. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,673 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 17% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (1,434). Heavy vehicles made up 3.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since. 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: 1,434 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 1,673 from 5:00 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

2016 was the peak year (12 collisions), and 2025 closed with 8. 16% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 6 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 9% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 3% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 5 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jul 19, 2026.

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.

How fast traffic moves here

The City's counter on Roselawn Ave between Elm Ridge Dr and Lyon Crt (122 m away) recorded an average of 33 km/h in its 3-day count in July 2023; 85% of drivers were at or under 41 km/h. That segment carries about 6,400 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).

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.

31 registered apartment buildings with 2,541 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, two of them social or Toronto Community Housing — 2.1× the median for a Toronto intersection. The nearest is 855 Roselawn Ave (51 m, 253 units, 17 storeys, built 1974), which scored 96 out of 100 at its October 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 91, about the citywide norm.

31 registered buildings · 2,541 units · 2 social housing · tallest 28 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 28 thefts from vehicles and four bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 5.3× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 5 in 2023–2025, about 1.7 a year, against 3.9 a year before that. 71% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots. Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on Apr 2, 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 Briar Hill-Belgravia.
