Savarin

Traffic volume8-hour count · Sep 29, 2022

This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 280 northbound vehicles, or 57% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 68. Morning rush is the busier period: 132 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:15 a.m., compared with 85 from 4:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. 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.

Peak hours: 132 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 85 from 4:15 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 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.

How fast traffic moves here

The City's counter on Savarin St between Danforth Rd and Thicketwood Dr (224 m away) recorded an average of 32 km/h in its 3-day count in March 2026; 85% of drivers were at or under 40 km/h. That segment carries about 500 vehicles a day.

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.

12 registered apartment buildings with 1,437 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, one of them social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 1340 Danforth Rd (435 m, 173 units, 15 storeys, built 1962), which scored 93 out of 100 at its November 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 93, above the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

12 registered buildings · 1,437 units · 1 social housing · tallest 15 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 13 thefts from vehicles and one bicycle theft at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 2.3× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 1.4 a year. 46% 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 Eglinton East.
