Around the corner
Food premises, public washrooms, child care and emergency services — distances are straight-line from the node
Restaurants & food
Toronto Public Health inspects 1 eating place within 300 m of this corner; within a kilometre the count is 6 — well below the median of 71 within a kilometre. The nearest is Brighter Path Support Homes, 173 m away, which passed its last DineSafe inspection in September 2026.
| Nearest food premises | Distance | Latest DineSafe inspection |
|---|---|---|

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.
Washrooms & water
No City washroom within 1 km.
Park washrooms, washrooms in City buildings and automated street toilets, with hours and status as the City publishes them (park washrooms are seasonal). Malls, shops and TTC stations are not included.
Child care
One licensed child care centre within a kilometre offers 28 spaces; it accepts City fee subsidy. The nearest is John G Diefenbaker Child Care Centre (681 m, 28 spaces, kindergarten, school age).

28 spaces · kindergarten, school age · fee subsidy · $10-a-day681 m
Licensed centres only; spaces are licensed capacity, not vacancies.
Emergency services
The nearest fire hall is Fire Station 212 (1.5 km), the nearest police station 43 Division (4.2 km) and the nearest ambulance station 1.5 km away.
Nearest station by straight line — not a response time, and not necessarily the station that would answer a call.
Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are 12 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 645 rental units. The nearest is 1 Dean Park Rd (436 m, 249 units, 16 storeys, built 1979), which scored 87 out of 100 at its September 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 83, below the 90 typical of Toronto intersections. The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 19 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue.

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: 60 m away, ≈60 spaces; 100 m away, ≈31 spaces; 164 m away, ≈3 spaces; 170 m away, ≈17 spaces; 201 m away, ≈4 spaces; 236 m away, ≈2 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 — 8-hour, Apr 1, 2023 (a weekend day)
No single direction dominates: each approach carried between 2,770 and 3,132 vehicles. Evening rush dominates here: 1,899 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:00 p.m., against 928 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.1% 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. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
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 E between Meadowvale Rd and Twyn Rivers Dr, 142 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in April 2025 put the average speed at 57 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 63 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 68 km/h or more. That segment carries about 10,200 vehicles a day.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Meadowvale Rd · Sheppard Ave E – Hedge End Rd · 62 m | Apr 2013 · 3 days | 4,705 | — | — | — |
| Sheppard Ave E · Meadowvale Rd – Twyn Rivers Dr · 142 m | Apr 2025 · 24 h | 10,232 | 57 km/h | 63 km/h | 68 km/h |
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 2022, with 22 collisions; 2025 recorded 17. 37 collisions (25%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 15 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 10% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 10 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 Apr 9, 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
Of the three serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025, one was fatal. 1 cyclist and 1 motorcyclist were among those hurt; one collision involved vehicle occupants only. All happened in daylight or lit conditions (citywide, 39% of KSI collisions occur in darkness). The most recent was on Apr 29, 2025. Going back to 2006, the total is 8.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 3 | #88 of 1,505 |
| Fatal | 1 | #264 of 319 |
| Involving a pedestrian | 0 | |
| Involving a cyclist | 1 | #45 of 271 |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 1 | |
| In darkness | 0 | 0% here vs 39% citywide |
| All KSI since 2006 | 8 | latest Apr 29, 2025 |
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.
Thefts reported at this corner
Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
Three thefts from vehicles and no bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — below the median of 6 for an intersection with any reported theft.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Dec 26, 2023. Police offset every occurrence to the nearest intersection before publishing, so these are thefts on the streets and premises around this node, not necessarily at the corner itself. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see West Rouge.
