Summary Background:

In FY23 City staff began working with Toole Design Group to develop a traffic calming toolkit. The purpose of the toolkit is to give the public, staff, and consultants working on traffic projects in the City a set of traffic calming design principles to use in their projects. The goal is to standardize the types of traffic calming elements and the process for selecting when to use one element over another. This toolkit will guide traffic calming in the City for the foreseeable future.
