Traffic and safety
The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets
Traffic volume8-hour count · Feb 2, 2022
This is a three-leg intersection with no south leg. Traffic is heaviest from the west: 1,484 eastbound vehicles entered from that leg, 69% of the total, against 66 from the north. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 297 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 277 from 4:00 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.1% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,177 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2022, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
Peak hours: 297 vehicles in the hour from 8:30 a.m. and 277 from 4:00 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

| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |

| All reported collisions | 3 | |
| With an injury | 0 | |

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 McNairn Ave and Donwoods Dr, 224 m from the corner, a 7-day count in June 2019 put the average speed at 53 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 63 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 69 km/h or more. That segment carries about 31,300 vehicles a day. The reading is 7 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. McNairn Ave between Yonge St and Yonge Blvd measured slower: 30 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 39 km/h (May 2026) — a much more recent reading than the one above.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Yonge Blvd · Old Orchard Grv – McNairn Ave · 46 m | Jan 2020 · 24 h | 4,557 | 45 km/h | 53 km/h | 58 km/h |
| McNairn Ave · Yonge St – Yonge Blvd · 108 m | May 2026 · 3 days | 442 | 30 km/h | 39 km/h | 44 km/h |
| Yonge St · McNairn Ave – Donwoods Dr · 224 m | Jun 2019 · 7 days | 31,342 | 53 km/h | 63 km/h | 69 km/h |
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.
