Traffic volume8-hour count · Jul 11, 2005

Traffic is heaviest from the west: 559 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 30% of the total, against 301 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 314 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:15 p.m., against 284 in the morning peak from 7:45 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 0.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 21 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2005, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.

Peak hours: 284 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 314 from 4:15 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 peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 6 collisions. 1 collision (3%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 8 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 27% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 1 collision involved a pedestrian or cyclist (3%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 1 more collision has been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Mar 16, 2026.

No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 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.

How fast traffic moves here

On Glenlake Ave between Oakmount Rd and Pacific Ave, 56 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in March 2017 put the average speed at 33 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 39 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 43 km/h or more. That segment carries about 2,600 vehicles a day. The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Pacific Ave between Glenlake Ave and Oakmount Rd measured slower: 27 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 35 km/h (Oct 2025) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Mountainview Ave (232 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.0% of the 8,452 vehicles logged in May 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

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.

Within a kilometre there are 28 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 4,913 rental units — four social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 255 Glenlake Ave (67 m, 336 units, 23 storeys, built 1986), which scored 98 out of 100 at its August 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 93, above the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

28 registered buildings · 4,913 units · 4 social housing · tallest 30 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.

16 thefts from vehicles and 35 bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 8.5× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 5.1 a year. 44% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 60% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking. Since January 2026, 4 more have been reported, the latest on Mar 11, 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 High Park North.
