Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 71 m away, ≈319 spaces; 112 m away, ≈1,126 spaces; 143 m away, ≈383 spaces; 164 m away, ≈67 spaces; 198 m away, ≈112 spaces; 279 m away, ≈315 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 — 14-hour, Nov 13, 2024
Traffic is heaviest from the north: 19,554 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 51% of the total, against 524 from the west. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,149 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 3,091 from 4:30 p.m. Trucks and buses were 5.8% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 22 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
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
On Warden Ave between Continental Pl and Sylla Ave, 18 m from the corner, a 3-day count in May 2023 put the average speed at 49 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 59 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 66 km/h or more. That segment carries about 29,400 vehicles a day.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Warden Ave · Continental Pl – Sylla Ave · 18 m | May 2023 · 3 days | 29,414 | 49 km/h | 59 km/h | 66 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
The worst year was 2019, with 12 collisions; 2025 recorded 7. 13 collisions (18%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 13 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 18% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 6 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (8%) — a high share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 4 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 3, 2026.
By year
Exposure-adjusted: 1.9 collisions per year per 10,000 daily vehicles, using the latest 14-hour count.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
Of the three serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025, one was fatal. 1 pedestrian and 2 motorcyclists were among those hurt. 1 of the 3 happened in darkness — 33%, about the citywide 39%. The most recent was on Oct 27, 2019. Going back to 2006, the total is 4. The police all-collisions file records 3 fatal collisions here in 2016–2025; the KSI file, which is compiled separately and geocoded to the nearest leg, places two of them just outside the 65 m radius.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 3 | #95 of 1,505 |
| Fatal | 1 | #302 of 319 |
| Involving a pedestrian | 1 | #319 of 879 |
| Involving a cyclist | 0 | |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 2 | |
| In darkness | 1 | 33% here vs 39% citywide |
| All KSI since 2006 | 4 | latest Oct 27, 2019 |
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

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Jan 16, 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 Wexford/Maryvale.
