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 26, 2025 · weekend
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 11,421 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 47% of the total, against 1,334 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 2,295 vehicles in the peak hour from 3:00 p.m., against 1,711 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Sunday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
Peak hours: 1,711 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 2,295 from 3:00 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 2017, with 16 collisions; 2025 recorded 10. 18 collisions (24%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 7 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 9% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 2 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (3%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 7 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 10, 2026.
No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Aug 1, 2006.

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.
