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

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the south: 8,617 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 52% of the total, against 169 from the west. Most cyclists arrived from the south (31 of 60). Evening rush dominates here: 1,794 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:30 p.m., against 928 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 0.8% 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.

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.
