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

On Dundas St E between Broadview Ave and Lane E of Broadview and N of Dundas, 164 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in June 2017 put the average speed at 40 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 47 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 52 km/h or more. That segment carries about 5,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Munro St between Lane N of Dundas and W of Hamilton and Mountstephen St measured slower: 28 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 37 km/h (Nov 2023) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Broadview Ave (147 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.3% of the 200,031 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none. 3 speed humps slow traffic on Munro Street between Dundas St E and Matilda Streetkintyre Avenue.

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 thefts from vehicles and 12 bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 2.8× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 1 in 2023–2025, about 0.3 a year, against 2.3 a year before that. 80% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 50% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking.

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 South Riverdale.
