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.

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, Nov 25, 2023 (a weekend day)
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 4,943 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 36% of the total, against 2,112 from the south. Most cyclists arrived from the west (148 of 345). Evening rush dominates here: 2,049 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:00 p.m., against 1,277 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 1.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 3 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
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
On Symington Ave between Dupont St and Adrian Ave, 80 m from the corner, a 2-day count in October 2013 put the average speed at 44 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 50 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 54 km/h or more. That segment carries about 3,300 vehicles a day. Dupont St between Lansdowne Ave and Campbell Ave measured slower: 38 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 47 km/h (Jun 2022). The reading is 13 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Symington Ave · Dupont St – Adrian Ave · 80 m | Oct 2013 · 2 days | 3,307 | 44 km/h | 50 km/h | 54 km/h |
| Dupont St · Lansdowne Ave – Campbell Ave · 158 m | Jun 2022 · 7 days | 13,548 | 38 km/h | 47 km/h | 51 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
The worst year was 2016, with 24 collisions; 2025 recorded 7. 20 collisions (14%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 17 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 12% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 12 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (8%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 5 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Mar 30, 2026.

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. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Jul 12, 2011.
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
19 thefts from vehicles and five bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 4.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 2 in 2023–2025, about 0.7 a year, against 3.1 a year before that. 63% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 100% of the bike thefts were from house driveways and garages.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theft from a vehicle | 19 | 2 | 0 | street/outdoor (12), house driveway/garage (5) |

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Aug 24, 2024. 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.
