Justification: The Transportation Services Division received more than 400 requests in the last fiscal year to improve traffic safety, a significant number of which was for traffic calming in residential and commercial neighborhoods. Traffic calming devices such as speed bumps and traffic circles are more effective in reducing automobile speed and volume than conventional traffic control devices such as signs and pavement markings absent police enforcement. Slower and less traffic in neighborhoods enhances public safety and overall quality of life.
