Traffic volume14-hour count · Nov 12, 2024
The west leg carries the load — 16,614 eastbound vehicles, or 35% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 7,720. Most cyclists arrived from the west (43 of 89). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 3,995 vehicles in the hour from 4:45 p.m., 18% above the morning peak from 7:15 a.m. (3,392). Trucks and buses were 8.7% 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 23 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 3,392 vehicles in the hour from 7:15 a.m. and 3,995 from 4:45 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 peak year was 2025, the most recent in the window, with 9 collisions. 7% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 13 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 32% of collisions, a higher hit-and-run share than the city's 16%. None of the collisions in the window involved a pedestrian or cyclist. Since January 2026, 1 more collision has been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Feb 5, 2026.
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. It involved vehicle occupants only — no pedestrian or cyclist. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on May 10, 2021. 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.
Speeds here, last measured in 2019
The City's counter on Steeles Ave W between Irondale Dr and Klondike Dr (364 m away) recorded an average of 54 km/h in its 2-day count in September 2019; 85% of drivers were at or under 67 km/h. That segment carries about 39,200 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |

| Steeles Ave W · Irondale Dr – Klondike Dr · 364 m | Sep 2019 · 2 days | 39,249 | 54 km/h | 67 km/h | 73 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.

Questions
Is Weston & Steeles a dangerous intersection?
It is not among the worst. 1 serious-injury collision was recorded in 2016–2025, out of 41 reported collisions of any severity. High counts usually track high traffic volume rather than a design flaw; volume is shown alongside so the numbers can be read in context.
How busy is Weston & Steeles?
One of the hundred busiest counted intersections in Toronto. It ranks #47 of 2,438 counted intersections for vehicles, 2.9× the median for a counted intersection.
Is Weston & Steeles a walkable intersection?
Weston & Steeles scores 33 out of 100 on this site's within-a-walk measure; the city median is 48. It counts what the City's own records put within a walk — food premises, transit, libraries, parks, schools, licensed child care — not shops, banks or clinics, which no City dataset lists. Within a walk: 11 stops within 300 m · 9 routes within 1 km; 1 grocery store within 1 km · 3 places to eat within 300 m. The crossing itself: traffic signal · head start for people walking. Steeles Avenue is the city limit, so nothing on the north side of the street is counted.
Is there a red-light camera at Weston & Steeles?
Yes. A red-light camera has operated at Weston & Steeles since 2017, according to the City of Toronto's red-light camera list. It issued 154 tickets in 2025 (248 in 2024) and 64 in 2026 through Jun 30, 2026; 2,009 since it was switched on.
How many red-light camera tickets are issued at Weston & Steeles?
154 in 2025, according to the City's annual charges data — down from 248 in 2024, and 64 in 2026 through Jun 30, 2026. The camera has issued 2,009 tickets since 2017. A red-light camera penalty in Toronto is $328.25 — a $260 set fine, a $60 victim fund component and an $8.25 provincial licence plate access fee. It carries no demerit points and does not touch anyone's driving record, because the notice goes to the vehicle's registered owner regardless of who was driving.
