Every establishment Toronto Public Health inspects under DineSafe, screened by name to leave out kitchens inside schools, care homes and offices. A conditional pass means infractions had to be fixed by a follow-up visit, not that the premises is closed.

Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 67 m away, ≈71 spaces; 68 m away, ≈20 spaces; 168 m away, ≈21 spaces; 234 m away, ≈156 spaces; 236 m away, ≈1,225 spaces; 243 m away, ≈1,034 spaces.
Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.
Traffic volume
The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Oct 16, 2024
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 14,300 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 38% of the total, against 5,452 from the west. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,211 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 3,256 from 3:45 p.m. Trucks and buses were 6.6% 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 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
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 most recent midblock count on Middlefield Rd between McCowan Rd and Compass Crt (56 m away, Apr 2012) recorded volume only — about 8,449 vehicles a day — with no speed data.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Middlefield Rd · McCowan Rd – Compass Crt · 56 m | Apr 2012 · 3 days | 8,449 | — | — | — |
| Huntingwood Dr · Blueberry Dr – McCowan Rd · 116 m | Apr 2012 · 3 days | 6,534 | — | — | — |
| McCowan Rd · Commander Blvd – Middlefield Rd · 148 m | Apr 2013 · 3 days | 44,571 | — | — | — |
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.
All police-reported collisions
Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025
The worst year was 2019, with 50 collisions; 2025 recorded 24. 59 collisions (18%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 32 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 10% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 3 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (1%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 14 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 23, 2026.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. It involved vehicle occupants only — no pedestrian or cyclist. It happened in darkness. The most recent was on Oct 13, 2022.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 1 | #1178 of 1,505 |

| Involving a cyclist | 0 | |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 1 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 1 | latest Oct 13, 2022 |
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.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Mar 12, 2026.

Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see Agincourt North.
