Re-evaluate Traffic Calming Program Study

Project Goals

On Dec. 3, 2024, City Council approved updates to the City's Traffic Calming Program and Policy. The changes are to:

Include program definition and objectives
Add residential collectors to the program starting Fiscal Year 2025/26
Update speed thresholds

Remove 95th percentile speed
85th percentile speed greater than posted speed limit +5 mph

Add Traffic Calming Measures to City's toolkit
- Stage 1
  - Community outreach and education
  - Vehicles speed feedback sign (permanent)
- Stage 2
  - Raised intersection
Remove "100% resident support living within 100 feet of a proposed device"
Reduce Stage 2 Neighborhood Consensus to greater than 50%
Improve program communication by developing and maintaining a project webpage

The completed project aims to:

Improve program transparency and clarity
Make the program easier to qualify for the implementation of traffic calming measures
Direct resident request to the most appropriate City program

Status

The draft Neighborhood Traffic Calming Handbook, which includes updated policy and process details, is now available. While this version is still being refined, the revised Traffic Calming Policy (Council Policy 1.2.4) is already in effect, and we are currently accepting requests.

We will continue to improve the handbook over the next six months as we work toward a final version.
