Traffic Calming: Public Engagement Open until February 7

Public engagement is open until Feb. 7 to educate residents about the traffic calming policy review, and to collect feedback to help shape a revised policy.
 
For any given street to be eligible for traffic calming, it must pass all eligibility criteria set in the policy. Eligible streets are then scored and ranked to determine their priority for implementation of traffic calming measures. You can read about the full process on the Engage page.
 
The current Traffic Calming Policy, introduced in 2011, was developed to handle numerous requests from residents on issues related to speeding, high non-local traffic volume, and inappropriate driving behaviors. Since then, there have been some changes in the project approval process and residents’ involvement, which need to be formalized.
