Mount Pleasant & Roxborough

Traffic volume14-hour count · Jun 25, 2025

The south leg carries the load — 15,738 northbound vehicles, or 55% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 7. Most cyclists arrived from the south (117 of 262). Morning rush is the busier period: 2,671 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:00 a.m., compared with 2,384 from 5:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 16 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 2,671 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,384 from 5:30 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

2023 was the peak year (14 collisions), and 2025 closed with 6. 12% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 7 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 13% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. Since January 2026, 12 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Aug 12, 2026.

One collision in 2016–2025 was fatal. It involved vehicle occupants only — no pedestrian or cyclist. It happened in darkness. The most recent was on Sep 5, 2016.

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.

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.

Five registered apartment buildings with 200 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner — well below the median of 15. The nearest is 10 Lamport Ave (636 m, 36 units, 4 storeys, built 1969), which scored 93 out of 100 at its August 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 91, about the citywide norm.

5 registered buildings · 200 units · tallest 4 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 one theft from a vehicle and one bicycle theft at this intersection in 2016–2025.

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 Rosedale-Moore Park.
