Fairway, Kansas, has implemented a traffic calming policy. That makes it one of the few Kansas City-area communities to do so. According to a KCStar article,
The policy, which can be seen online at www.fairwaykansas.org/trafficcalm.html, sets traffic speed and volume benchmarks at which physical measures to slow speeds or reduce volume would be considered. It includes a survey of residents and input from the city's public works and public safety representatives. Traffic calming measures that could result from the study range from increased police enforcement of speed limits to physical barriers like speed bumps to dead-ending affected streets. |
