Wincott & The Westway

Traffic volume8-hour count · Dec 9, 2015

Traffic is heaviest from the west: 3,566 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 44% of the total, against 437 from the north. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,523 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,459 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 11 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2015, 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: 1,523 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,459 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 5 collisions. 4 collisions (21%) involved an injury. 2 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 11% of collisions. 3 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (16%). Since January 2026, 1 more collision has been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Jun 9, 2026.

Of the three serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025, two were fatal. 2 pedestrians were among those hurt; one collision involved vehicle occupants only. 1 of the 3 happened in darkness — 33%, about the citywide 39%. The most recent was on Oct 1, 2025.

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 The Westway between Shadwick Dr and Fulford Pl, 142 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in December 2021 put the average speed at 51 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 58 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 63 km/h or more. That segment carries about 9,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.

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.

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.

One theft from a vehicle and no bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025.

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 Willowridge-Martingrove-Richview.
