Origin
Summary
Cavell Avenue is a residential street, between Pape Avenue and Carlaw Avenue. I have heard from residents concerned about the volume and speed of traffic on this street – as it is the common route when driving in the direction of Withrow Park (Southbound from Pape Avenue). I have polled the street and 86% of the 28 local residents support the installation of speed humps on Cavell Avenue.
