How fast traffic moves here

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

On Beaumonde Heights Dr between Taysham Cres and Monterrey Dr, 370 m from the corner, a 3-day count in June 2018 put the average speed at 35 km/h and the 85th-percentile speed at 43 km/h, with the fastest one in twenty at 47 km/h or more. That segment carries about 900 vehicles a day. Monterrey Dr between Beaumonde Heights Dr and Amaron Ave measured slower: 33 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 41 km/h (Jun 2025). The reading is 8 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. At the school-zone speed sign on Monterrey Dr (68 m away, 40 km/h limit), 0.9% of the 16,311 vehicles logged in July 2026 were doing 50 km/h or more — almost none.

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.
