Traffic volume14-hour count · Apr 12, 2025 · weekend
The west leg carries the load — 4,753 eastbound vehicles, or 30% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 3,445. The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 1,578 vehicles in the hour from 6:45 p.m., 82% above the morning peak from 9:30 a.m. (866). Heavy vehicles made up 2.2% 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 18 months old; the City recounts intersections on an ad-hoc schedule, so volumes may have shifted since.
Peak hours: 866 vehicles in the hour from 9:30 a.m. and 1,578 from 6:45 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
2019 was the peak year (57 collisions), and 2025 closed with 31. 15% of collisions here involved an injury, in line with the 15% citywide. 65 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 19% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%.

The most recent report on file is from Sep 24, 2026.
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. 1 pedestrian was among those hurt. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on Nov 8, 2023. Going back to 2006, the total is 5.

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 2022
The City's counter on Yonge St between Edward St and Gould St (103 m away) recorded an average of 29 km/h in its 7-day count in June 2022; 85% of drivers were at or under 39 km/h. That segment carries about 10,200 vehicles a day. The reading is 4 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule.
