The Town of Milton has issued a report outlining the new traffic calming policy for our roads.
The Town’s Traffic Calming Policy provides guidelines, procedures and criteria to initiate, investigate and implement traffic calming measures within residential neighbourhoods. Its purpose is to address safety concerns related to speeding and excessive volume in a fair and efficient manner.
Guidelines in the Policy apply to local and collector roadways within primarily residential neighbourhoods.
Traffic calming measures can be effective in addressing issues related to vehicle speed, excessive traffic volume and overall neighbourhood safety. Commonly used traffic calming measures include speed humps, traffic circles, curb extensions, curb radius reductions and raised median islands.
The Policy was developed by staff and approved by Milton Council. Residents will be notified about the implementation schedule and procedures.
