Every establishment Toronto Public Health inspects under DineSafe, screened by name to leave out kitchens inside schools, care homes and offices. A conditional pass means infractions had to be fixed by a follow-up visit, not that the premises is closed.

The City's RentSafeTO register — rental apartment buildings of three or more storeys and ten or more units — with the score from each building's latest City evaluation (out of 100; poor scores trigger a full audit). LTB orders are final Landlord and Tenant Board orders naming the address (Jan 2026 – Jun 2026); fire-code violations are open items in Toronto Fire Services' inspection data. Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport. Condominiums and houses are not registered.
Parking

Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.
Traffic volume
The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Nov 15, 2025 (a weekend day)
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 14,792 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 54% of the total, against 286 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 2,651 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:00 p.m., against 1,797 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 0.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.
Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.
How fast traffic moves here
Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming
The City's most recent midblock count on Buchan Crt between Sheppard Ave E and Bloorview Pl (66 m away, Feb 2002) recorded volume only — about 2,040 vehicles a day — with no speed data.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Buchan Crt · Sheppard Ave E – Bloorview Pl · 66 m | Feb 2002 · 24 h | 2,040 | — | — | — |
| Sheppard Ave E · Betty Sutherland Trl – Maris Shepway · 299 m | Sep 2014 · 7 days | 19,193 | — | — | — |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.
All police-reported collisions
Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025
The worst year was 2023, with 4 collisions; 2025 recorded 1. 4 collisions (17%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 1 driver failed to remain at the scene — 4% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 1 collision involved a pedestrian or cyclist (4%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 5 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 5, 2026.
By year
Exposure-adjusted: 0.9 collisions per year per 10,000 daily vehicles, using the latest 14-hour count.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. Since January 2026, after the ranking window closed, 1 serious-injury collision has been recorded here, the latest on Mar 26, 2026.
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 0 | |
| Fatal | 0 | |
| Involving a pedestrian | 0 | |
| Involving a cyclist | 0 | |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |

| Since January 2026 (outside the window) | 1 | latest Mar 26, 2026 |
| All KSI since 2006 | 1 | latest Mar 26, 2026 |
KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.
