Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Jun 10, 2025
This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 707 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 346 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the south (39 of 80). Evening rush dominates here: 245 vehicles in the peak hour from 3:30 p.m., against 101 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 16 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 101 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 245 from 3:30 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 2017, with 5 collisions; 2025 recorded 1. 3 collisions (14%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 11 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 52% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 2 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (10%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 2 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 13, 2026.
No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 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.
