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 · Jan 26, 2022

The north leg carries the load — 1,727 southbound vehicles, or 47% of everything entering — while the east leg brought 171. The morning and afternoon peaks are nearly equal: 625 vehicles in the hour from 8:15 a.m. and 592 from 4:45 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 3.2% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,177 vehicles. 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.

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 Hounslow Ave between Senlac Rd and Elgin Rd (101 m away) recorded an average of 44 km/h in its 24-hour count in March 2007; 85% of drivers were at or under 53 km/h. That segment carries about 900 vehicles a day. The reading is 19 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. Senlac Rd between Churchill Ave and Horsham Ave measured slower: 37 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 44 km/h (Jan 2026) — a much more recent reading than the one above. At the school-zone speed sign on Churchill Ave (279 m away, 50 km/h limit), 0.1% of the 32,378 vehicles logged in August 2026 were doing 60 km/h or more — almost none.
