2023 traffic calming projects
In the last year, the City collected requests for slowing down traffic from people who live, own property, or run businesses here. The City's team looked at each request and held open houses close to spots where locals were worried about traffic in Spring 2023. In these open houses, we heard about the exact traffic worries of people nearby. There was also a survey and an interactive map for anyone to share more thoughts with the team.
By doing this, we found some projects that will stop risky driving and make streets safer.
