Traffic volume14-hour count · Jul 15, 2025
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 9,678 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 34% of the total, against 4,724 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 2,556 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:45 p.m., against 2,273 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 15 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 2,273 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,556 from 4:45 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 worst year was 2016, with 29 collisions; 2025 recorded 20. 15 collisions (8%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 26 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 14% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 4 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (2%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 13 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 16, 2026.
No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 4 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Jul 17, 2015.

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.
How fast traffic moves here
On Dupont St between Lane W of St George and S of Dupont and Huron St, 221 m from the corner, a 3-day count in August 2004 put the average speed at 40 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 50 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 57 km/h or more. That segment carries about 24,300 vehicles a day. The reading is 22 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Spadina Rd between Bernard Ave and Dupont St measured slower: 40 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 48 km/h (May 2025) — a much more recent reading than the one above.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spadina Rd · Bernard Ave – Dupont St · 155 m | May 2025 · 3 days | 14,975 | 40 km/h | 48 km/h | 53 km/h |
| Dupont St · Lane W of St George and S of Dupont – Huron St · 221 m | Aug 2004 · 3 days | 24,346 | 40 km/h | 50 km/h | 57 km/h |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.
