Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · Jan 25, 2020 · weekend
This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. Traffic is heaviest from the east: 1,933 westbound vehicles entered from that leg, 54% of the total, against 106 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 655 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:00 p.m., against 232 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 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 7 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2020, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
Peak hours: 232 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 655 from 2:00 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
The peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 2 collisions. 2 collisions (25%) involved an injury. 4 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 50% of collisions. 2 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (25%). The most recent report on file is from Sep 29, 2025.
No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Jun 17, 2006.

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.
