Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · Feb 15, 2023
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 1,074 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 45% of the total, against 4 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 436 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 328 in the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2023, 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.
Peak hours: 328 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 436 from 5:00 p.m. (approach figures are vehicles entering from that leg over the whole count — one day's traffic, not an annual average).
Collisions 2016–2025 · within 65 m
The worst year was 2022, with 3 collisions; 2025 recorded 1. 0 collisions (0%) involved an injury. 6 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 46% of collisions. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. The most recent report on file is from Oct 15, 2025.
No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.

A collision counts when its recorded location is within 65 m of the centreline node, intersection-related or not. KSI = killed or seriously injured, the basis of the danger rankings; records can lag a year or more, so the current year is outside the window. How collisions are counted.
