Traffic volume8-hour count · Jan 18, 1984

Unusually, the morning peak is the heavier one — 2,952 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m., 55% above the afternoon peak from 2:00 p.m. (1,909). Heavy vehicles made up 1.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 43 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 1984, 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: 2,952 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,909 from 2:00 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 2023, with 8 collisions; 2025 recorded 6. 3 collisions (9%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 3 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 9% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 4 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (12%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 6 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 23, 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 Jul 13, 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.

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.

Within a kilometre there are 24 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 3,755 rental units — four social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 925 Bay St (521 m, 293 units, 33 storeys, built 2005), which scored 96 out of 100 at its July 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 91, about the citywide norm.

24 registered buildings · 3,755 units · 4 social housing · tallest 51 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.

No thefts from vehicles and nine bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 44% of the bike thefts were from school or campus property.

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 Bay-Cloverhill.
