Traffic Calming
Recently 9 traffic calming circles were approved by the City Council in the south Lorin District area. Well received, the traffic circles are highly prized by neighborhoods willing to landscape and maintain them. The circles improve the neighborhood appearance and provide traffic calming benefits. The LeConte neighborhood is an excellent example of well-landscaped and maintained traffic circles. On November 28, 2006, the City Council adopted a Traffic Calming Policy that will: (1) identify the purpose and general application of traffic calming; (2) establish basic criteria for the application of traffic calming measures; (3) establish a ranking system applicable when the number of projects exceeds the available funding; (4) establish a process by which to prioritize requests; and (5) seek opportunities to implement traffic calming measures.
