Understanding
Traffic Calming
Let
our image-based presentation help your city, neighborhood, or
civic group understand the "tools" in the traffic calming "toolkit",
from enforcement to speed humps to circular intersections. Flexible
formats to fit your available time.
Circle
Ahead For Safety 
Neighborhood
traffic circles and modern roundabouts are powerful options
for lowering motor traffic speeds at intersections while reducing
collisions and injuries. One obstacle to their broader application
is that they are unfamiliar elements in many cities whose only
traffic controls have historically been stop signs and signals.
Especially with roundabouts, everyone is sure they've seen one,
but often it's not the kind that your city is considering.
- Using
photos, diagrams, and video footage, our presentation helps
your city, neighborhood, or civic group understand the safety
and traffic flow benefits of circular intersections.
- Using
diagrams as well as photos and movie clips of actual installations,
we'll explain the differences between neighborhood circles,
roundabouts, and rotaries - and show what's applicable at
your own intersections.
- Participants
will also learn how motorists, truck drivers, bicyclists,
walkers, and handicapped travelers use these types of intersections.
This seminar
can be delivered in flexible formats to fit your available
time.
