Live traffic camera
The City's RESCU camera at Spadina Ave & Dundas St W — a 320 × 240 still the City replaces every few minutes, with the frame's age and its four fixed reference views
The City's own feed for Spadina & Dundas, published as a 320 × 240 still that its server replaces every few minutes — the card checks for a new frame every 45 seconds while you are on the page (Reload checks now) and says whether the frame changed. The fixed views are the City's reference stills showing where the camera points in each direction.

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.

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, Jul 2, 2026
The south leg carries the load — 7,408 northbound vehicles, or 31% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 5,419. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,304 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 38% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (1,671). Heavy vehicles made up 3.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.
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 most recent midblock count on Dundas St W between Lane E of Spadina and S of Dundas and Spadina Ave (26 m away, Jan 2016) recorded volume only — about 6,770 vehicles a day — with no speed data.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dundas St W · Lane E of Spadina and S of Dundas – Spadina Ave · 26 m | Jan 2016 · 7 days | 6,770 | — | — | — |
| Spadina Ave · Willison Sq – Dundas St W · 39 m | Sep 2009 · 3 days | 13,976 | — | — | — |
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.

Of the three serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025, one was fatal. 3 pedestrians were among those hurt. 1 of the 3 happened in darkness — 33%, about the citywide 39%. The last one inside the window was in 2023. Since January 2026, after the ranking window closed, 1 serious-injury collision has been recorded here, the latest on Jun 27, 2026. Going back to 2006, the total is 6.

| Since January 2026 (outside the window) | 1 | latest Jun 27, 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

Since January 2026, 6 more have been reported, the latest on Jun 21, 2026.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Jun 21, 2026. 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 Kensington-Chinatown.
