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.

Licensed centres only; spaces are licensed capacity, not vacancies.
Emergency services
The nearest fire hall is Fire Station 432 (825 m), the nearest police station 22 Division (3.2 km) and the nearest ambulance station 825 m away.
Nearest station by straight line — not a response time, and not necessarily the station that would answer a call.
Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 130 m away, ≈382 spaces; 190 m away, ≈1,606 spaces; 192 m away, ≈2,291 spaces; 259 m away, ≈123 spaces; 351 m away, ≈5,389 spaces; 384 m away, ≈17 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 — 8-hour, Aug 31, 1999
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. The south leg carries the load — 5,192 northbound vehicles, or 45% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 1,671. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,940 vehicles in the hour from 4:30 p.m., 36% above the morning peak from 8:15 a.m. (1,422). Trucks and buses were 5.7% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 27 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 1999, 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.
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 The West Mall between Waulron St and Paxman Rd (293 m away) recorded an average of 74 km/h in its 3-day count in September 2023; 85% of drivers were at or under 79 km/h. That segment carries about 13,900 vehicles a day.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| The West Mall · Waulron St – Paxman Rd · 293 m | Sep 2023 · 3 days | 13,856 | 74 km/h | 79 km/h | 126 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
2019 was the peak year (18 collisions), and 2025 closed with 8. 8% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 21 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 33% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 5% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 2 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 24, 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
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 20 thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 3.3× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 4 in 2023–2025, about 1.3 a year, against 2.3 a year before that. 80% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots. Since January 2026, 3 more have been reported, the latest on May 15, 2026.

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through May 15, 2026. 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. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see Etobicoke City Centre.
