Traffic calming treatment pilot

We are exploring ways to use traffic calming on certain streets. These are streets that did not qualify for the Neighborhood Traffic Calming program. The treatments are raised concrete areas called traffic calming islands. We install these at intersections or mid-block. We are preparing to install the first round of islands by the end of this fall.
