TRAFFIC CALMING - 11

TRAFFIC CALMING

Traffic calming gives elected officials, local Public Works Directors, City Engineers and even local police the opportunity to work with their communities to create personalized solutions to dangerous traffic.

Traffic calming devices “have the back” of all these officials when they wade into the community and try to create real-life, tailor-made solutions to address everything from annoying cut-through commuters to sites of multiple pedestrian fatality tragedies.
