Foot traffic runs at about one pedestrian per 32 vehicles — this is a car-dominated crossing (median: one per 13). That comes with about 8.5 reported collisions a year, 2016–2025 — 2.7× the median for a Toronto intersection with any collisions. Collisions fell 56%, from 59 in 2016–2020 to 26 in 2021–2025. About one in 28 of those collisions involved a death or serious injury.

Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Dec 17, 2022 (a weekend day)

This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 5,884 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 46% of the total, against 2,612 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 2,175 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:00 p.m., against 796 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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.

Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

On Queen's Plate Dr between Triple Crown Ave and Rexdale Blvd, 228 m from the corner, a 3-day count in June 2025 put the average speed at 52 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 60 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 67 km/h or more. That segment carries about 7,700 vehicles a day.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Rexdale Blvd · Glorious Song Way – Queen's Plate Dr · 105 mOct 2009 · 3 days14,037
Queen's Plate Dr · Triple Crown Ave – Rexdale Blvd · 228 mJun 2025 · 3 days7,72152 km/h60 km/h67 km/h

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.

All police-reported collisions

Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025

Since January 2026, 1 more collision has been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 8, 2026.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.
