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 · Oct 17, 2023
Traffic is heaviest from the east: 11,746 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 49% of the total, against 577 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the east (46 of 64). Evening rush dominates here: 2,274 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 2,099 in the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). 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: 2,099 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 2,274 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
The worst year was 2024, with 11 collisions; 2025 recorded 10. 16 collisions (20%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 20 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 24% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 4 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (5%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 8 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Aug 25, 2026.
No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006. The police all-collisions file records 1 fatal collision here in 2016–2025; the KSI file, which is compiled separately and geocoded to the nearest leg, places it just outside the 65 m radius.

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.
