Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · Aug 10, 2022
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 4,653 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 105 from the east. Most cyclists arrived from the south (36 of 70). Evening rush dominates here: 1,473 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 1,058 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. 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: 1,058 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 1,473 from 4:45 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 5 collisions. 5 collisions (15%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 9 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 27% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. 3 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (9%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 2 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 19, 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 Jun 18, 2008.

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.
Speeds here, last measured in 2022
On Scarlett Rd between Bernice Cres and Eileen Ave, 72 m from the corner, a 3-day count in August 2022 put the average speed at 45 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 52 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 57 km/h or more. That segment carries about 13,300 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Bernice Cres between Lydon Ave and Scarlett Rd measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 41 km/h (Apr 2018).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bernice Cres · Lydon Ave – Scarlett Rd · 38 m | Apr 2018 · 2 days | 428 | 33 km/h | 41 km/h | 45 km/h |
| Scarlett Rd · Bernice Cres – Eileen Ave · 72 m | Aug 2022 · 3 days | 13,280 | 45 km/h | 52 km/h | 57 km/h |
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.
