Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.

Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 14-hour, Nov 9, 2025 (a weekend day)

The east leg carries the load — 5,119 westbound vehicles, or 33% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 2,352. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,443 vehicles in the hour from 2:00 p.m., 54% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (935). Heavy vehicles made up 1.4% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count was taken on a Sunday, so it reflects weekend traffic; the rankings compare it with weekday counts elsewhere. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

The City's counter on Davenport Rd between Mc Alpine St and Bishop St (337 m away) recorded an average of 37 km/h in its 3-day count in April 2024; 85% of drivers were at or under 48 km/h. That segment carries about 21,100 vehicles a day. Yonge St between Scollard St and Davenport Rd measured slower: 28 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 37 km/h (Jun 2023).

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.

All police-reported collisions

Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025

2019 was the peak year (55 collisions), and 2025 closed with 31. 10% of collisions here involved an injury, below the 15% citywide. 49 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 13% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

Nothing in 2016–2025, the ten complete years the rankings use. 2 earlier KSI collisions are on file, the last on Dec 4, 2007.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.

Thefts reported at this corner

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025

Toronto Police place 19 thefts from vehicles and 27 bicycle thefts at this intersection in 2016–2025 — 7.7× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has picked up: 19 in 2023–2025, about 6.3 a year, against 3.9 a year before that. 79% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 33% of the bike thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots. Since January 2026, 5 more have been reported, the latest on Jun 8, 2026.
