Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume14-hour count · Jul 9, 2024
Traffic is heaviest from the south: 9,563 northbound vehicles entered from that leg, 45% of the total, against 374 from the east. Most cyclists arrived from the south (187 of 416). Evening rush dominates here: 2,264 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 1,433 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.9% 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: 1,433 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,264 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 2024, with 5 collisions; 2025 recorded 4. 6 collisions (18%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 4 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 12% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 4 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (12%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 3 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 11, 2026.
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Feb 23, 2024.

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.
