Food premises, public washrooms, child care and emergency services — distances are straight-line from the node
Restaurants & food
No restaurant or café sits within 300 m of the corner; 4 eating places are within a kilometre — well below the median of 73 within a kilometre. The nearest is Domino's Pizza, 597 m away, which passed its last DineSafe inspection in August 2026.
| Nearest food premises | Distance | Latest DineSafe inspection |

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.

Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Three registered apartment buildings with 641 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner — well below the median of 23. The nearest is 4003 Bayview Ave (252 m, 172 units, 12 storeys, built 1971), which scored 99 out of 100 at its August 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 97, above the 90 typical of Toronto intersections. The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 5 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue, and 3 fire-code violations are open across them.
| Nearest buildings | Units | Storeys | Built | Score | LTB orders | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4003 Bayview Ave · Sterling Karamar Property Management | 172 | 12 | 1971 | 99 · Aug 2025 | 2 · 3 fire | 252 m |
| 4005 Bayview Ave · Sterling Karamar Property Management | 235 | 12 | 1971 | 97 · Jun 2024 | 3 | 270 m |
| 4001 Bayview Ave · Sterling Karamar Property Management | 234 | 12 | 1971 | 94 · Sep 2024 | 0 | 337 m |
The City's RentSafeTO register — rental apartment buildings of three or more storeys and ten or more units — with the score from each building's latest City evaluation (out of 100; poor scores trigger a full audit). LTB orders are final Landlord and Tenant Board orders naming the address (Jan 2026 – Jun 2026); fire-code violations are open items in Toronto Fire Services' inspection data. Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport. Condominiums and houses are not registered.
Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 251 m away, ≈719 spaces; 455 m away, ≈47 spaces; 470 m away, ≈21 spaces; 495 m away, ≈15 spaces; 515 m away, ≈34 spaces; 552 m away, ≈477 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, Aug 18, 2026
The east leg carries the load — 13,569 westbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 85. Most cyclists arrived from the east (42 of 67). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 2,233 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 15% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (1,938). Heavy vehicles made up 3.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). 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 most recent midblock count on Tarbert Rd between Covewood St and Steeles Ave E (37 m away, Jun 2016) recorded volume only — about 1,447 vehicles a day — with no speed data.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tarbert Rd · Covewood St – Steeles Ave E · 37 m | Jun 2016 · 3 days | 1,447 | — | — | — |
| Steeles Ave E · Bayview Ave – Tarbert Rd · 49 m | Apr 2014 · 3 days | 22,196 | — | — | — |
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
The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.
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.
