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 · Dec 13, 2017
The east leg carries the load — 4,183 westbound vehicles, or 63% of everything entering — while the north leg brought 173. Morning rush is the busier period: 1,277 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:15 a.m., compared with 815 from 4:15 p.m. Trucks and buses were 6.5% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. The count is 9 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2017, 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: 1,277 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 815 from 4:15 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

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
The City's counter on Lumsden Ave between Oak Park Ave and Westlake Ave (279 m away) recorded an average of 40 km/h in its 3-day count in September 2011; 85% of drivers were at or under 48 km/h. That segment carries about 8,700 vehicles a day. The reading is 15 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Chisholm Ave between Westbrook Ave and Crewe Ave measured slower: 34 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 40 km/h (Nov 2023) — a much more recent reading than the one above.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chisholm Ave · Westbrook Ave – Crewe Ave · 84 m | Nov 2023 · 3 days | 1,839 | 34 km/h | 40 km/h | 44 km/h |
| Lumsden Ave · Oak Park Ave – Westlake Ave · 279 m | Sep 2011 · 3 days | 8,688 | 40 km/h | 48 km/h | 51 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.
