The latest City count averages about 1,250 vehicles an hour over its 8-hour span, about the citywide median. Foot traffic runs at about one pedestrian per 2.6 vehicles — more walking than at most counted intersections, where the median is one per 13. That comes with about 2.2 reported collisions a year, 2016–2025 — roughly the median for a Toronto intersection. The pace has been steady: 11 collisions in 2016–2020 and 11 in 2021–2025. No one was killed or seriously injured in any of them.

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 — 8-hour, Jun 16, 2003

This is a three-leg intersection with no east leg. Traffic is heaviest from the north: 5,984 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 60% of the total, against 17 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 1,636 vehicles in the peak hour from 5:00 p.m., against 1,473 in the morning peak from 8:00 a.m. Heavy vehicles made up 4.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 23 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2003, 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.

Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.

How fast traffic moves here

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

On Yonge St between Scollard St and Davenport Rd, 12 m from the corner, a 24-hour count in June 2023 put the average speed at 28 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 37 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 43 km/h or more. That segment carries about 7,300 vehicles a day.

Street segmentCountedVehicles / dayAverage85th percentile95th
Yonge St · Scollard St – Davenport Rd · 12 mJun 2023 · 24 h7,29728 km/h37 km/h43 km/h

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.

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. 1 earlier KSI collision is on file, the last on Jun 9, 2015.

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

No thefts from vehicles and seven bike thefts were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — about the median for an intersection with any reported theft. 43% of the bike thefts were from commercial premises — shops, offices and their lots.
