What is Traffic Calming?
Traffic calming is the combination of measures that reduce the negative effects of motor vehicle use, alter driver behavior, and improve conditions for pedestrians, bicyclists, and neighborhood residents.
Traffic calming consists of physical design and other measures put in place on existing streets to reduce vehicle speeds and improve safety.
Speed limit reductions on neighborhood streets
- Community outreach and media campaign
- Temporary and permanent engineering solutions
- Traffic law enforcement and education
- Evaluation with each approach
