Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 22, 2023
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 6,234 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 43% of the total, against 2,343 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 2,205 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 1,974 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 1,974 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,205 from 4:30 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 12 collisions; 2025 recorded 9. 15 collisions (22%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 7 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 10% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 1 collision involved a pedestrian or cyclist (1%), a low 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 Aug 24, 2026.
No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 2 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on May 15, 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.
How fast traffic moves here
On Finch Ave W between Carney Rd and Senlac Rd, 104 m from the corner, a 2-day count in March 2020 put the average speed at 51 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 62 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 69 km/h or more. That segment carries about 20,700 vehicles a day. The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Senlac Rd between Yorkview Dr and Lurgan Dr measured slower: 49 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 56 km/h (Sep 2006). At the school-zone speed sign on Finch Ave W (83 m away, 50 km/h limit), 5.8% of the 208,242 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — a share the City would treat as a speeding problem.
