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 · Feb 19, 2026
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 210 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 60 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 55 vehicles in the peak hour from 3:30 p.m., against 44 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
Peak hours: 44 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 55 from 3:30 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

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.
