Royal York & Weston Wood

Traffic volume8-hour count · Mar 22, 2022

The north leg carries the load — 4,296 southbound vehicles, or 47% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 30. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,443 vehicles in the hour from 2:45 p.m., 10% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,310). Heavy vehicles made up 2.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 5 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.

Peak hours: 1,310 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 1,443 from 2:45 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 25 collisions. 9% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 31 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 24% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 3% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 6 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 15, 2026.

One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. It involved vehicle occupants only — no pedestrian or cyclist. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Sep 23, 2022.

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

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.

Two registered apartment buildings with 270 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, one of them social or Toronto Community Housing — well below the median of 15. The nearest is 1447 Royal York Rd (705 m, 108 units, 4 storeys, built 1995), which scored 96 out of 100 at its August 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation.

2 registered buildings · 270 units · 1 social housing · tallest 13 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.

Toronto Police place five thefts from vehicles and two bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 40% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.

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 Willowridge-Martingrove-Richview.
