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 · Dec 17, 2022 · weekend
Traffic is heaviest from the west: 6,463 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 53% of the total, against 31 from the south. Evening rush dominates here: 2,096 vehicles in the peak hour from 4:30 p.m., against 953 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 2.8% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is 4 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, 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: 953 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 2,096 from 4:30 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. 12 collisions (29%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 6 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 15% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 2 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (5%), typical for the city. Since January 2026, 8 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Aug 26, 2026.
No one was killed or seriously injured here in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Sep 30, 2015.

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 Wilson Ave between Murray Rd and Cornelius Pkwy, 83 m from the corner, a 3-day count in October 2021 put the average speed at 47 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 55 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 59 km/h or more. That segment carries about 31,900 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Murray Rd between Regent Rd and Katherine Rd measured slower: 44 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 54 km/h (Oct 2008).
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wilson Ave · Murray Rd – Cornelius Pkwy · 83 m | Oct 2021 · 3 days | 31,862 | 47 km/h | 55 km/h | 59 km/h |
| Murray Rd · Regent Rd – Katherine Rd · 150 m | Oct 2008 · 24 h | 2,546 | 44 km/h | 54 km/h | 59 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.
