Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 29, 2025 · weekend

Traffic is spread evenly across the approaches, from 12,074 vehicles entering from the east to 13,412 from the south. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 5,001 vehicles in the hour from 4:15 p.m., 48% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (3,372). Heavy vehicles made up 1.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

Peak hours: 3,372 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 5,001 from 4:15 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

2017 was the peak year (105 collisions), and 2025 closed with 68. 21% of collisions here involved an injury, above the 15% citywide. 91 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 13% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 6% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 49 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 30, 2026.

Of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025, all were fatal. 2 pedestrians were among those hurt. The most recent was on Sep 20, 2021. Going back to 2006, the total is 4.

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.

Traffic on these streets

The City's most recent midblock count on Sheppard Ave E between Victoria Park Ave and Commons Dr (109 m away, Sep 2014) recorded volume only — about 15,105 vehicles a day — with no speed data.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; 85% of drivers were at or below the 85th-percentile speed. A reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data. How speeds are read.

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.

Nine registered apartment buildings with 2,274 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, three of them social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 10 Chichester Pl (244 m, 220 units, 16 storeys, built 1971), which scored 92 out of 100 at its August 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 94, above the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

9 registered buildings · 2,274 units · 3 social housing · tallest 44 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 six thefts from vehicles and four bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. The pace has picked up: 4 in 2023–2025, about 1.3 a year, against 0.9 a year before that. 83% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.

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 Henry Farm.
