Traffic volume14-hour count · May 26, 2026

Traffic is heaviest from the north: 13,616 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 31% of the total, against 8,151 from the east. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 3,737 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 3,752 from 5:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.0% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. This is a fresh count, taken within the last year.

Peak hours: 3,737 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 3,752 from 5:00 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

The worst year was 2016, with 166 collisions; 2025 recorded 61. 98 collisions (11%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 133 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 14% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 23 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (2%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 53 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from Sep 23, 2026.

Of the three serious-injury collisions in 2016–2025, one was fatal. 2 pedestrians were among those hurt; one collision involved vehicle occupants only. 1 of the 3 happened in darkness — 33%, about the citywide 39%. The most recent was on Oct 31, 2024. 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

On Yonge St between Tolman St and Finch Ave W, 58 m from the corner, a 3-day count in October 2021 put the average speed at 52 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 64 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 70 km/h or more. That segment carries about 19,800 vehicles a day. The reading is 5 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Finch Ave W between Yonge St and Duplex Ave measured slower: 37 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 48 km/h (Apr 2026) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Kempford Blvd (339 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.0% of the 43,565 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

Speed sign

Kempford Blvd (westbound), 339 m — 40 km/h zone. Median 21 km/h, 85th percentile 30 km/h; 0.0% at 50 km/h or more. 43,565 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.

Within a kilometre there are five RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 1,081 rental units — two social or Toronto Community Housing. The nearest is 77 Finch Ave E (414 m, 438 units, 21 storeys, built 1985), which scored 100 out of 100 at its June 2024 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 93, above the 90 typical of Toronto intersections.

5 registered buildings · 1,081 units · 2 social housing · tallest 21 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.

65 thefts from vehicles and 26 bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 15× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has been steady at around 9.1 a year. 78% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots; 46% of the bike thefts were from transit property. Since January 2026, 2 more have been reported, the latest on Jun 4, 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 Willowdale West.
