Trethewey & Clearview (West)

Traffic volume8-hour count · Mar 1, 2023

This is a three-leg intersection with no north leg. The west leg carries the load — 4,763 eastbound vehicles, or 54% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 214. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,395 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,437 from 4:30 p.m. Trucks and buses were 5.0% 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 16,177 vehicles. 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: 1,395 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,437 from 4:30 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

2016 was the peak year (9 collisions), and 2025 closed with 0. 8% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 17 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 35% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 2% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 3 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jul 21, 2026.

No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Jun 14, 2015.

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.

Our own measure, not a licensed walkability rating: every point comes from a City dataset listed under Sources, and the six parts add up to the score. How the score is built · the full ranking.

30 registered apartment buildings with 1,592 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner — 2.0× the median for a Toronto intersection. The nearest is 102 Trethewey Dr (39 m, 30 units, 4 storeys, built 1957), which scored 89 out of 100 at its June 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 88, about the citywide norm.

30 registered buildings · 1,592 units · tallest 23 storeys. The score is the City's RentSafeTO evaluation out of 100; buildings of three or more storeys and ten or more units are registered, condominiums and houses are not. Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport.

Toronto Police place four thefts from vehicles and no bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. Since January 2026, 1 more has been reported, the latest on Feb 6, 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 Beechborough-Greenbrook.
