Information
Traffic calming is the combination of mostly physical measures that minimize negative effects of motor vehicle use, alter driver behavior, and increase safety for bicyclists and pedestrians. Traffic calming measures are self-enforcing and do not require enforcement by Police. Traffic calming reduces the speed and volume of traffic to acceptable levels for improved neighborhood livability, crime prevention, and urban redevelopment.
