Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets, and the red-light camera
Traffic volume14-hour count · Dec 11, 2024
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 5,083 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 35% of the total, against 1,506 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 1,504 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:15 p.m., against 1,071 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Trucks and buses were 5.4% 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 is 22 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 1,071 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 1,504 from 5:15 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

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 Sheppard Ave E between Murison Blvd and Brenyon Way, 251 m from the corner, a 7-day count in October 2019 put the average speed at 69 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 78 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 112 km/h or more. That segment carries about 14,900 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Murison Blvd (176 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.1% of the 8,398 vehicles logged in May 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

Is Sheppard & Brenyon a walkable intersection?

A red-light camera penalty in Toronto is $328.25 — a $260 set fine, a $60 victim fund component and an $8.25 provincial licence plate access fee.
