Weston & Humber

Traffic volume14-hour count · May 28, 2024

The east leg carries the load — 15,973 westbound vehicles, or 40% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 3,633. Most cyclists arrived from the west (61 of 141). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,384 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 3,308 from 4:00 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. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 2 years old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 3,384 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 3,308 from 4:00 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

2018 was the peak year (56 collisions), and 2025 closed with 31. 11% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 36 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 10% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 2% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 17 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 17, 2026.

Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 motorcyclist was among those hurt; one collision involved vehicle occupants only. One of the two happened in darkness. The most recent was on Aug 3, 2023. Going back to 2006, the total is 3.

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.

15 registered apartment buildings with 937 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, three of them social or Toronto Community Housing.

15 registered buildings · 937 units · 3 social housing · tallest 14 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.

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 Rockcliffe-Smythe.
