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 — 8-hour, Sep 6, 2007

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The east leg carries the load — 988 westbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 487. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 309 vehicles in the hour from 2:15 p.m., 21% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (256). Heavy vehicles made up 1.3% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 19 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2007, 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.

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
