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.

Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 83 m away, ≈166 spaces; 378 m away, ≈70 spaces; 382 m away, ≈100 spaces; 394 m away, ≈51 spaces; 420 m away, ≈134 spaces; 492 m away, ≈592 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 — 14-hour, Jun 16, 2026
The west leg carries the load — 11,110 eastbound vehicles, or 44% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 1,675. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,178 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 2,151 from 5:30 p.m. Trucks and buses were 5.5% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. 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 counter on Steeles Ave E between Walkway E of Brimley and S of Steeles and Strawberry Hills Dr (234 m away) recorded an average of 49 km/h in its 3-day count in March 2020; 85% of drivers were at or under 54 km/h. That segment carries about 22,100 vehicles a day. Strawberry Hills Dr between Wilderness Dr and Steeles Ave E measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (Jun 2026). The reading is 6 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on New Sign (319 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.0% of the 33,535 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

School-zone speed sign 319 m
New Sign, Utah · 33,535 vehicles logged in July 2026 · runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.
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. 2 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Nov 7, 2013.
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.
