The latest City count averages about 1,330 vehicles an hour over its 8-hour span, 1.15× the median counted intersection. Foot traffic runs at about one pedestrian per 5 vehicles — more walking than at most counted intersections, where the median is one per 13. Cyclists were 2.3% of vehicle volume, about 3.0× the typical share. On average 23 collisions a year were reported here in 2016–2025 — 7.4× the median for a Toronto intersection with any collisions. The pace has been steady: 116 collisions in 2016–2020 and 112 in 2021–2025. About one in 114 of those collisions involved a death or serious injury.

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, Dec 3, 2022 (a weekend day)

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 3,945 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 37% of the total, against 1,720 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 1,747 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:15 p.m., against 813 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.1% 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 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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.

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 Jarvis St between Shuter St and Lane S of Dundas and W of Jarvis, 78 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2021 put the average speed at 38 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 48 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 53 km/h or more. That segment carries about 9,500 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Shuter St · Jarvis St – Walnut Hall Pl · 27 mMar 2021 · 7 days3,046
Jarvis St · Shuter St – Lane S of Dundas and W of Jarvis · 78 mMay 2021 · 3 days9,46038 km/h48 km/h53 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 2017, with 30 collisions; 2025 recorded 22. 43 collisions (19%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 30 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 13% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 10 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (4%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 15 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 25, 2026.

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 pedestrian and 1 motorcyclist were among those hurt. One of the two happened in darkness. The most recent was on Apr 18, 2023. Going back to 2006, the total is 3.

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.
