Every establishment Toronto Public Health inspects under DineSafe, screened by name to leave out kitchens inside schools, care homes and offices. A conditional pass means infractions had to be fixed by a follow-up visit, not that the premises is closed.
Washrooms & water
No City washroom within 1 km.
Park washrooms, washrooms in City buildings and automated street toilets, with hours and status as the City publishes them (park washrooms are seasonal). Malls, shops and TTC stations are not included.
Child care
No licensed child care centre within 1 km.
Emergency services
The nearest fire hall is Fire Station 411 (1.6 km), the nearest police station 31 Division (2.6 km) and the nearest ambulance station 1.6 km away.
Nearest station by straight line — not a response time, and not necessarily the station that would answer a call.
Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 115 m away, ≈3 spaces; 190 m away, ≈1,326 spaces; 191 m away, ≈1,200 spaces; 215 m away, ≈1,473 spaces; 233 m away, ≈1,507 spaces; 259 m away, ≈9 spaces.
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 10, 2022 (a weekend day)
The east leg carries the load — 7,579 westbound vehicles, or 48% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 327. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,376 vehicles in the hour from 4:15 p.m., 70% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (1,398). Heavy vehicles made up 3.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. 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
The City's counter on Steeles Ave W between Irondale Dr and Klondike Dr (343 m away) recorded an average of 54 km/h in its 2-day count in September 2019; 85% of drivers were at or under 67 km/h. That segment carries about 39,200 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Barmac Dr · Garyray Dr – Steeles Ave W · 148 m | Jun 2016 · 3 days | 4,181 | — | — | — |
| Steeles Ave W · Irondale Dr – Klondike Dr · 343 m | Sep 2019 · 2 days | 39,249 | 54 km/h | 67 km/h | 73 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

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on May 26, 2020.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 1 | #1383 of 1,505 |
| Fatal | 0 | |
| Involving a pedestrian | 1 | #797 of 879 |
| Involving a cyclist | 0 | |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 0 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 1 | latest May 26, 2020 |
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 five thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 80% of the vehicle thefts were from commercial premises — shops, offices and their lots.
By year

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theft from a vehicle | 5 | 1 | 0 | commercial premises (4), street/outdoor (1) |
| Bicycle theft | 0 | 0 | 0 | — |
Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Jul 29, 2025. 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 Humber Summit.
