O'Connor & Donlands

Traffic volume14-hour count · Feb 14, 2026 · weekend

Traffic is heaviest from the east: 9,231 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 33% of the total, against 4,239 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 2,733 vehicles in the peak hour from 3:00 p.m., against 1,942 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.0% 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 Saturday, 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: 1,942 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 2,733 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 2019, with 40 collisions; 2025 recorded 37. 43 collisions (14%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 34 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 5 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (2%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 31 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 16, 2026.

One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in darkness. The most recent was on Dec 28, 2019. 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.

Speeds here, last measured in 2018

On O'Connor Dr between Warland Ave and Wolverton Ave, 214 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2018 put the average speed at 49 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 57 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 62 km/h or more. That segment carries about 33,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 8 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Donlands Ave between Davies Cres and Elmsdale Rd measured slower: 44 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 50 km/h (Oct 2018).

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.

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.
