Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · Sep 15, 2021
This is a three-leg intersection with no west leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 100 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 43% of the total, against 38 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 44 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 36 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, 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: 36 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 44 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 2019, with 1 collision; 2025 recorded 0. 1 collision (100%) involved an injury. 1 driver failed to remain at the scene — 100% of collisions. 1 collision involved a pedestrian or cyclist (100%). Since January 2026, 1 more collision has been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Mar 23, 2026.
No collision involving a death or serious injury has been recorded within 65 m of this intersection since the record begins in 2006.

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.
Speeds here, last measured in 2021
On Waniska Ave between Smithfield Dr and Aldgate Ave, 152 m from the corner, a 3-day count in September 2021 put the average speed at 32 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 42 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 48 km/h or more. That segment carries about 300 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Waniska Ave · Smithfield Dr – Aldgate Ave · 152 m | Sep 2021 · 3 days | 330 | 32 km/h | 42 km/h | 48 km/h |
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.
