Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 5, 2024

The south leg carries the load — 10,187 northbound vehicles, or 44% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 26. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,169 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 2,224 from 4:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 2,169 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 2,224 from 4:00 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

2024 was the peak year (19 collisions), and 2025 closed with 8. 14% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 19 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 15% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 9% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 17 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Aug 25, 2026.

One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 cyclist was among those hurt. It happened in darkness. The most recent was on May 25, 2017. Going back to 2006, the total is 2.

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.

How fast traffic moves here

The City's counter on Broadway Ave between Rawlinson Ave and Corinth Gdns (317 m away) recorded an average of 31 km/h in its 3-day count in May 2024; 85% of drivers were at or under 38 km/h. That segment carries about 4,900 vehicles a day. At the school-zone speed sign on Keewatin Ave (322 m away, 30 km/h limit), 7.1% of the 35,393 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a share the City would treat as a speeding problem. 11 speed humps slow traffic on Broadway Avenue between Mount Pleasant Rd and Bayview Ave (installed 2005).

Our own measure, not a licensed walkability rating: every point comes from a City dataset listed under Sources, and the six parts add up to the score. How the score is built · the full ranking.

92 registered apartment buildings with 12,336 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, ten of them social or Toronto Community Housing — 6.1× the median for a Toronto intersection. The nearest is 890 Mount Pleasant Rd (51 m, 145 units, 19 storeys, built 1968), which scored 96 out of 100 at its June 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 93, above the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

92 registered buildings · 12,336 units · 10 social housing · tallest 39 storeys. The score is the City's RentSafeTO evaluation out of 100; buildings of three or more storeys and ten or more units are registered, condominiums and houses are not. Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport.

Toronto Police place two thefts from vehicles and 21 bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 3.8× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 2.3 a year. 67% of the bike thefts were from school or campus property. Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on Mar 10, 2026.

Police offset every occurrence to the nearest intersection before publishing, so these are thefts on the streets and premises around this node, not necessarily at the corner itself. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see Mount Pleasant East.
