Traffic volume14-hour count · Jun 24, 2025

The east leg carries the load — 7,376 westbound vehicles, or 29% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 5,059. Most cyclists arrived from the east (810 of 1,762). The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 2,075 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,149 from 5:15 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 16 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 2,075 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 2,149 from 5:15 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

2019 was the peak year (59 collisions), and 2025 closed with 30. 12% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 59 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 16% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 6% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 16 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 20, 2026.

None of the three serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025 was fatal. 1 cyclist was among those hurt; 2 collisions involved vehicle occupants only. 2 of the 3 happened in darkness — 67%, above the citywide 39%. The most recent was on Apr 28, 2024. Going back to 2006, the total is 8.

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 Woodbine Ave between Merrill Ave E and Mendel Ave (212 m away) recorded an average of 55 km/h in its 3-day count in June 2017; 85% of drivers were at or under 63 km/h. That segment carries about 16,600 vehicles a day. The reading is 9 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Wolverleigh Blvd (247 m away, 30 km/h limit), 0.5% of the 9,233 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — almost none.

Speed sign

Wolverleigh Blvd (westbound), 247 m — 30 km/h zone. Median 16 km/h, 85th percentile 28 km/h; 0.5% at 40 km/h or more. 9,233 vehicles logged in August 2026; runs weekdays, 7 am - 9 pm.

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.

11 registered apartment buildings with 650 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, five of them social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 1017 Woodbine Ave (188 m, 59 units, 6 storeys, built 1970), which scored 97 out of 100 at its November 2025 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 93, above the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

11 registered buildings · 650 units · 5 social housing · tallest 7 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.

Toronto Police place six thefts from vehicles and 12 bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 3.0× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 1 in 2023–2025, about 0.3 a year, against 2.4 a year before that. 83% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 58% of the bike thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.

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 East End-Danforth.
