Winona & St Clair

Traffic volume14-hour count · Oct 18, 2025 · weekend

The west leg carries the load — 5,528 eastbound vehicles, or 44% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 694. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,134 vehicles in the hour from 6:15 p.m., 18% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (960). Heavy vehicles made up 0.9% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count was taken on a Saturday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

Peak hours: 960 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,134 from 6:15 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

2024 was the peak year (13 collisions), and 2025 closed with 5. 14% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 15 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 19% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 13% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 4 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Apr 13, 2026.

Of the two serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025, one was fatal. 2 pedestrians were among those hurt. One of the two happened in darkness. The most recent was on Dec 7, 2023. Going back to 2006, the total is 6.

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

The City's counter on St Clair Ave W between Crang Ave and Appleton Ave (384 m away) recorded an average of 37 km/h in its 3-day count in May 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 44 km/h.

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.

31 registered apartment buildings with 1,094 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, five of them social or Toronto Community Housing — 2.1× the median for a Toronto intersection.

Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport.

Toronto Police place three thefts from vehicles and one bicycle theft 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 Wychwood.
