Traffic calming measures should be considered in the design of new
streets to create safe, comfortable spaces that cater to pedestrians,
bicyclists and motorized vehicles. Traffic calming can include a
variety of treatments, depending on the location and the overall community
design objective. Special attention should be given to high
pedestrian use places such as school sites and major road intersections.
Specific sites and treatments should be determined at the
draft plan of subdivision stage. Traffic calming initiatives should
be consistent with the Transportation Association of Canada (TAC)
guidelines.
