Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets, and the red-light camera

Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 29, 2023

Traffic is heaviest from the south: 6,930 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 34% of the total, against 3,515 from the east. Evening rush dominates here: 3,144 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 2,652 in the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. Trucks and buses were 14.5% 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 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 2,652 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 3,144 from 4:00 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

The worst year was 2016, with 34 collisions; 2025 recorded 18. 44 collisions (16%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 35 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 13% of collisions, below the citywide 16%.

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.
