The Town of Whitby is working to support safe roads in neighbourhoods by developing a new Traffic Calming Policy and Guidelines - and wants to hear from you!

Traffic calming measures are things like speed humps, raised crosswalks and intersections, mini (neighbourhood) roundabouts, and more, intended to slow traffic and support safe roads.

The goal of a new policy and guidelines is to establish a clear and more consistent process for how requests related to traffic calming measures are assessed and prioritized for Town roads.

Specifically, the Town is seeking feedback to help inform the:

• criteria that will be used by staff to evaluate a traffic calming request from a resident;
• level of resident support and engagement required to initiate and implement traffic calming measures; and,
• types of traffic calming measures that should be used in Whitby to address traffic issues.
