Traffic volume14-hour count · Oct 8, 2025

The north leg carries the load — 7,495 southbound vehicles, or 39% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 1,070. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 1,555 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,626 from 4:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 13 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.

Peak hours: 1,555 vehicles in the hour from 8:00 a.m. and 1,626 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

2016 was the peak year (41 collisions), and 2025 closed with 21. 7% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 50 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 18% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. People walking or cycling were involved in 4% of collisions here (citywide: 5%). Since January 2026, 14 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 21, 2026.

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

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 Yonge St between Montgomery Ave and Roselawn Ave (76 m away) recorded an average of 39 km/h in its 7-day count in June 2019; 85% of drivers were at or under 49 km/h. That segment carries about 20,000 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Montgomery Ave between Duplex Ave and Edith Dr measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 41 km/h (Oct 2023). At the school-zone speed sign on Erskine Ave (190 m away, 30 km/h limit), 1.5% of the 91,477 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 40 km/h or more — a small minority.

Speed sign

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.

95 registered apartment buildings with 12,394 rental units stand within a kilometre of the corner, 13 of them social or Toronto Community Housing — 6.3× the median for a Toronto intersection. The nearest is 3 Broadway Ave (44 m, 36 units, 4 storeys, built 1930), which scored 85 out of 100 at its September 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation. One building of the 95 scored below 70; the average is 92, about the citywide norm.

95 registered buildings · 12,394 units · 13 social housing · tallest 39 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 24 thefts from vehicles and 14 bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 6.3× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 3.8 a year. 75% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 64% of the bike thefts were from apartment-building parking. Since January 2026, 2 more have been reported, the latest on Jun 8, 2026.

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 North Toronto.
