Traffic and safety

The City's latest turning-movement count, every police-reported collision within 65 m, speeds on these streets

Traffic volume14-hour count · Aug 5, 2026

The west leg carries the load — 3,897 eastbound vehicles, or 52% of everything entering — while the south leg brought 3. Most cyclists arrived from the east (70 of 168). The afternoon peak is the heavier one — 779 vehicles in the hour from 5:00 p.m., 38% above the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. (563). Heavy vehicles made up 1.7% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is recent, so it reflects current conditions.

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 2011

The City's counter on Cedarvale Ave between Sammon Ave and Carruthers Lane (138 m away) recorded an average of 40 km/h in its 3-day count in May 2005; 85% of drivers were at or under 50 km/h. That segment carries about 500 vehicles a day. The reading is 21 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Lumsden Ave between Oak Park Ave and Westlake Ave measured slower: 40 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 48 km/h (Sep 2011) — a much more recent reading than the one above. 5 speed humps slow traffic on Cedarvale Avenue between Lumsden Ave and Cosburn Ave (installed 2025).
