What Are Traffic Calming Measures?
Traffic calming measures are physical design strategies and roadway features intended to reduce vehicle speeds, manage traffic flow, and improve safety for pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers. These techniques are essential in residential neighborhoods, school zones, and areas with high pedestrian activity where speeding vehicles can pose serious risks.
Rather than relying solely on enforcement or signage, traffic calming works by altering the physical layout of a roadway to encourage safer driving behavior. The goal is to naturally slow vehicles down without compromising access or mobility. These features not only enhance safety but also contribute to creating a more walkable and livable environment.
From raised surfaces, such as speed humps and tables, to visual cues like curb extensions and median islands, traffic calming solutions are versatile andpracticale. They can be customized based on the community’s layout, traffic volume, and the specific concerns of residents.
Common Types of Traffic Calming Measures We Install
We offer a full range of traffic calming solutions tailored to the needs of neighborhoods, residential communities, commercial properties, and municipal developments. Each product is designed to enhance safety while preserving traffic flow.
Speed Humps – Gently raised areas across the roadway designed to slow down cars while still allowing emergency vehicles to pass effectively.
Speed Bumps – More abrupt than speed humps, these are ideal for parking lots and private drives where low speeds are essential.
Speed Tables – Flat-topped versions of speed humps that provide smoother transitions, often used at crosswalks or busier residential intersections.
Median Islands – Narrow, raised areas placed in the center of the road to divide lanes and reduce speeding by narrowing the visual path.
Bollards – Short, sturdy vertical posts used to prevent vehicle access or define pedestrian zones while maintaining visual openness.
Curb Extensions – Also known as bulb-outs, these extend the sidewalk or curb line into the parking lane, reducing crossing distance and slowing the movement of turning vehicles.
Pedestrian Refuges – Raised islands in the center of the road that give pedestrians a safe midway stopping point when crossing.
Rumble Strips – Grooved or raised patterns across the road that create noise and vibration when driven over, alerting drivers to slow down.

Benefits of Traffic Calming Measures
Traffic calming isn’t just about slowing cars down – it’s about improving quality of life. Well-designed traffic calming measures can transform neighborhoods, increase safety, and enhance community appeal.
Here are some of the key benefits:
Improved Pedestrian and Cyclist Safety – Slower vehicle speeds reduce the risk and severity of accidents, making streets safer for children, families, and cyclists.
Reduced Traffic Speeds – Measures like speed humps and tables naturally encourage drivers to maintain lower speeds without the need for enforcement or signage alone.
Discourages Cut-Through Traffic – When residential streets are used as shortcuts, it puts unnecessary strain on communities. Traffic calming discourages this behavior and helps restore peace.
Enhanced Community Appeal – With added safety and improved aesthetics from features like median islands and curb extensions, traffic calming can help increase property values and neighborhood pride.
Supports Walkable Communities – Slower traffic creates a more pedestrian-friendly environment, encouraging walking, biking, and outdoor activity.
Improved Emergency Response Routing – Modern traffic calming designs consider emergency vehicle access, offering solutions such as speed tables that strike a balance between safety and accessibility.
These benefits make traffic calming a crucial component of urban planning, neighborhood development, and property management. Our team has the experience to help you determine the best options for your location and goals.
