Weston & Rogers

Traffic volume14-hour count · May 29, 2024

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 16,112 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 39% of the total, against 93 from the west. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,322 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 3,380 from 5:00 p.m. Trucks and buses were 6.3% 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 16,177 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: 3,322 vehicles in the hour from 7:45 a.m. and 3,380 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 61 collisions; 2025 recorded 31. 49 collisions (10%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 48 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 10% of collisions, below the citywide 16%. 11 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (2%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 15 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 27, 2026.

Neither of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 pedestrian and 1 motorcyclist were among those hurt. Both happened in darkness. The last one inside the window was in 2019. Since January 2026, after the ranking window closed, 1 serious-injury collision has been recorded here (1 pedestrian involved), the latest on Sep 15, 2026. Going back to 2006, the total is 6. The police all-collisions file records 1 fatal collision here in 2016–2025; the KSI file, which is compiled separately and geocoded to the nearest leg, places it just outside the 65 m radius.

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.

How fast traffic moves here

Speed sign

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.

Within a kilometre there are 16 RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 1,063 rental units — four social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 25 Nashville Ave (279 m, 28 units, 3 storeys, built 1951), which scored 96 out of 100 at its August 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 90, about the citywide norm.

16 registered buildings · 1,063 units · 4 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.

Three thefts from vehicles and no bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — below the median of 6 for an intersection with any reported theft. Since January 2026, 2 more have been reported, the latest on Apr 8, 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 Rockcliffe-Smythe.
