– 995 vehicles per day (average)
– 85th percentile is 48 km per hour in 50km Per hour zone
– Top speed recorded was 72km per hour (With many high 60’s)
Southwest on Power Centre Boulevard near the shopping centres

In addition to the immediate driver feedback to help reduce speeds, this data helps inform Enforcement Services on deploying resources effectively to help combat speeding concerns.
Further, this data supports other town departments with collecting data such as number of vehicles, which long term helps build into asset management for roadways and reduces costs for future transportation master plans.
