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

Emergency services
The nearest fire hall is Fire Station 214 (1.2 km), the nearest police station 43 Division (3.9 km) and the nearest ambulance station 2.6 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
18 registered apartment buildings with 536 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, seven of them social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 39 Durnford Rd (571 m, 14 units, 3 storeys, built 1992), which scored 88 out of 100 at its October 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 84, below the 90 typical of Toronto intersections. The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 10 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 2 fire-code violations are open across them.

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: 292 m away, ≈44 spaces; 540 m away, ≈38 spaces; 547 m away, ≈68 spaces; 570 m away, ≈74 spaces; 606 m away, ≈32 spaces; 621 m away, ≈30 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 19, 2024
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The west leg carries the load — 5,541 eastbound vehicles, or 49% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 938. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,107 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 20% above the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. (919). Heavy vehicles made up 3.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 22 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
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 counter on Sheppard Ave E between Elaine Lennox Crt and Tallpines Crt (210 m away) recorded an average of 68 km/h in its 24-hour count in March 2011; 85% of drivers were at or under 74 km/h. That segment carries about 9,500 vehicles a day. The reading is 15 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vandorf St · Sheppard Ave E – Tideswell Blvd · 73 m | Jun 2007 · 3 days | 1,464 | — | — | — |
| Sheppard Ave E · Elaine Lennox Crt – Tallpines Crt · 210 m | Mar 2011 · 24 h | 9,525 | 68 km/h | 74 km/h | 79 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
2016 was the peak year (3 collisions), and 2025 closed with 2. 25% of collisions here involved an injury. 1 driver failed to remain at the scene — 8% of collisions. People walking or cycling were involved in 17% of collisions here. Since January 2026, 1 more collision has been reported, 1 of them fatal; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from May 21, 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
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 — it was fatal, the latest on May 21, 2026.
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 0 | |
| Fatal | 0 | |
| Involving a pedestrian | 0 | |
| Involving a cyclist | 0 | |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 0 | |
| Since January 2026 (outside the window) | 1 | 1 fatal · latest May 21, 2026 |
| All KSI since 2006 | 1 | latest May 21, 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.
Thefts reported at this corner
Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
Toronto Police place four thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Jul 20, 2025. 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.
