Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Dec 2, 2021

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The west leg carries the load — 1,618 eastbound vehicles, or 88% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 69. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 353 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 67% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (211). Heavy vehicles made up 1.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, 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.

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 counter on Queens Ave between Stanley Ave and Lane N of Stanley and E of Queens (9 m away) recorded an average of 33 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2021; 85% of drivers were at or under 40 km/h. That segment carries about 200 vehicles a day. Stanley Ave between Elizabeth St and Lane E of Royal York and N of Stanley measured slower: 31 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 38 km/h (Mar 2026). The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Mimico Ave (219 m away, 30 km/h limit), 1.2% of the 126,081 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a small minority.

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.

Killed or seriously injured

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

Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Jul 13, 2009.

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

Toronto Police place six thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 50% of the vehicle thefts were from house driveways and garages.
