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.
Washrooms & water

Nearest station by straight line — not a response time, and not necessarily the station that would answer a call.
Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 90 m away, ≈5 spaces; 113 m away, ≈5 spaces; 147 m away, ≈6 spaces; 165 m away, ≈3 spaces; 175 m away, ≈8 spaces; 242 m away, ≈8 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, Dec 10, 2023 (a weekend day)
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. The west leg carries the load — 4,370 eastbound vehicles, or 43% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 1,450. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,610 vehicles in the hour from 2:00 p.m., 113% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (755). Heavy vehicles made up 2.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count was taken on a Sunday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 3 years 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 counter on Morningside Ave between Halfway Ave and Scarborough Railpath Trl (78 m away) recorded an average of 55 km/h in its 3-day count in August 2023; 85% of drivers were at or under 64 km/h. That segment carries about 19,500 vehicles a day. Old Finch Ave between Forest Creek Ptwy and Baffin Crt measured slower: 46 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 54 km/h (Jul 2011).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Morningside Ave · Halfway Ave – Scarborough Railpath Trl · 78 m | Aug 2023 · 3 days | 19,500 | 55 km/h | 64 km/h | 70 km/h |
| Old Finch Ave · Forest Creek Ptwy – Baffin Crt · 300 m | Jul 2011 · 24 h | 3,606 | 46 km/h | 54 km/h | 59 km/h |
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

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 Apr 11, 2025. Going back to 2006, the total is 2.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |

| Fatal | 0 | |
| Involving a pedestrian | 0 | |
| Involving a cyclist | 0 | |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 1 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 2 | latest Apr 11, 2025 |
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.
