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 25, 2023 · weekend
Traffic is heaviest from the east: 7,343 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 41% of the total, against 901 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 2,714 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 1,511 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Trucks and buses were 5.9% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 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 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 1,511 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,714 from 4:00 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 2017, with 24 collisions; 2025 recorded 14. 31 collisions (19%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 18 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 13 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (8%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 9 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Aug 28, 2026.
Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 2 pedestrians were among those hurt. One of the two happened in darkness. The most recent was on Dec 7, 2023.

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.
