Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets, and the red-light camera
Traffic volume14-hour count · Jun 12, 2024
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 13,915 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 33% of the total, against 6,797 from the north. Evening rush dominates here: 4,164 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 3,486 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.6% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 3,486 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 4,164 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 2016, with 26 collisions; 2025 recorded 13. 32 collisions (17%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 19 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 10% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 9 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (5%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 16 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 26, 2026.
No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 2 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Apr 4, 2013.

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.
How fast traffic moves here
On Bloor St W between Tremont Rd and The East Mall, 180 m from the corner, a 3-day count in June 2019 put the average speed at 57 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 65 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 70 km/h or more. That segment carries about 18,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. The East Mall between Faludon Crt and Hwy 427 Collectors N measured slower: 37 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 44 km/h (Aug 2024) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on The East Mall (2/2) (137 m away, 30 km/h limit), 65% of the 16,872 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a high share for a school zone.
