Traffic Studies

Welcome to the Traffic Studies & Neighborhood Traffic Management Webpage

(Program 755)

The Traffic Studies & Neighborhood Traffic Management Program receives and responds to many individual requests for traffic investigations each month. These investigations look into the need for such things as traffic signs, signals, pavement markings, increased police enforcement, street lighting, and many other traffic operation issues. Listed below are several programs that we have established in order to organize and concentrate staff effort using set guidelines.

Traffic Safety Awareness Program

This program responds to concerns about excessive vehicular speeds. Voluntary compliance with the posted speed limit is encouraged using specialized trailers equipped with radar driven digital display boards. To access the Traffic Safety Awareness page click on the section title above. To jump to the current month's schedule of trailer placements click on the trailer photograph.

Neighborhood Traffic Management Program

This program represents the City's commitment to accommodate growth in a manner that protects the established character of its neighborhoods. The Neighborhood Traffic Management Policy provides a process for identifying and addressing traffic issues on local residential streets relating to "Quality of Life" (i.e.: excessive vehicular speed and volume).
