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
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 48 m away, ≈52 spaces; 94 m away, ≈39 spaces; 108 m away, ≈40 spaces; 133 m away, ≈34 spaces; 190 m away, ≈36 spaces; 199 m away, ≈362 spaces.
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: 11,014 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 50% of the total, against 92 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 2,123 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:15 p.m., against 1,375 in the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.3% 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
On Sheppard Ave W between Buckland Rd and Yatescastle Dr, 382 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in October 2023 put the average speed at 52 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 61 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 67 km/h or more. That segment carries about 25,800 vehicles a day. At the school-zone speed sign on Spenvalley Dr (314 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.0% of the 7,047 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sheppard Ave W · Buckland Rd – Yatescastle Dr · 382 m | Oct 2023 · 24 h | 25,836 | 52 km/h | 61 km/h | 67 km/h |

Spenvalley Dr (eastbound), S Side Spenvalley Dr Opposite 28 San Robertoway · 7,047 vehicles logged in July 2026 · runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.
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 9 collisions; 2025 recorded 2. 10 collisions (17%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 9 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 16% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 4 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (7%) — a high 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 Jun 23, 2026.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
One collision in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Mar 4, 2017.
By year

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.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Jan 26, 2024.
