Traffic Calming

For further advice or information about traffic calming telephone 01429 523200. 

Requests for a variety of traffic calming measures (including speed humps, build outs and pedestrian islands) have to be justified by speed survey results identifying a problem and in areas with a significant casualty record.

Areas such as this are targeted for safety schemes, however, areas which don't meet this criteria may be eligible for funding under the Council's Safer Streets Initiative.

Any proposals under the initiative would need to be both acceptable to the local community and appropriate to the road conditions.
