Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Apr 29, 2026

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. The south leg carries the load — 1,983 northbound vehicles, or 46% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 1,049. Most cyclists arrived from the south (285 of 628). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 474 vehicles in the hour from 7:00 p.m., 69% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (280). Heavy vehicles made up 2.1% 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 counter on Dovercourt Rd between Sudbury St and Lane S of Queen and E of Lisgar (88 m away) recorded an average of 28 km/h in its 3-day count in November 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 34 km/h. That segment carries about 3,700 vehicles a day. Sudbury St between King St W and Lane E of Dovercourt and N of Sudbury measured slower: 22 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 29 km/h (Nov 2022). The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 6 speed humps slow traffic on Sudbury Street between Queen St W and Dovercourt Rd, and 2 more calmed segments end here.

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.

Thefts reported at this corner

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025

Toronto Police place ten thefts from vehicles and 21 bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 5.2× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft.
