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 9, 2025 · weekend
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 4,765 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 606 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 829 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:15 p.m., against 717 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 0.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Sunday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
Peak hours: 717 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 829 from 2:15 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 2018, with 6 collisions; 2025 recorded 2. 3 collisions (10%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 2 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 7% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 1 collision involved a pedestrian or cyclist (3%), typical for the city. The most recent report on file is from Sep 4, 2025.
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 Jan 19, 2013.

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 Davenport Rd between Marchmount Rd and Shaw St, 82 m from the corner, a 7-day count in June 2022 put the average speed at 43 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 49 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 54 km/h or more. That segment carries about 13,500 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Shaw St between Wychcrest Ave and Minho Blvd measured slower: 32 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Oct 2019). At the school-zone speed sign on Melita Cres (232 m away, 30 km/h limit), 1.0% of the 15,763 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a small minority.
