St Clair & Herron

Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 10, 2024 · weekend

The east leg carries the load — 10,056 westbound vehicles, or 47% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 506. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,189 vehicles in the hour from 2:30 p.m., 55% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (1,410). Heavy vehicles made up 1.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Sunday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,410 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 2,189 from 2:30 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

2018 was the peak year (7 collisions), and 2025 closed with 2. 30% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 2 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 6% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 9% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 2 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Aug 21, 2026.

No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 2 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Dec 3, 2013.

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.

Speeds here, last measured in 2013

The City's counter on Herron Ave between Vianney Ave and Lioba Dr (188 m away) recorded an average of 42 km/h in its 24-hour count in June 2013; 85% of drivers were at or under 52 km/h. That segment carries about 1,100 vehicles a day. The reading is 13 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

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.

Our own measure, not a licensed walkability rating: every point comes from a City dataset listed under Sources, and the six parts add up to the score. How the score is built · the full ranking.

Four registered apartment buildings with 65 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner — well below the median of 15. The nearest is 3222 St Clair Ave E (342 m, 16 units, 3 storeys, built 1952), which scored 92 out of 100 at its September 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 90, about the citywide norm.

4 registered buildings · 65 units · tallest 3 storeys. The score is the City's RentSafeTO evaluation out of 100; buildings of three or more storeys and ten or more units are registered, condominiums and houses are not. Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport.
