Neighborhood
Traffic Calming Program
The Neighborhood Traffic Calming Program (NTCP) is a procedure to use positive methods of speed tables,
geometry, and/or landscaping to alter the negative effects that traffic flow creates in a residential area. The negative effect most
often occurs when motorists use a local street as a short cut between arterials and by motorists who travel faster than the posted
neighborhood speed limit. This unnecessary neighborhood thru-traffic, by motorists travelling at unsafe speeds, on streets designed
primarily for local access to properties poses safety hazards.
To determine if your residential street qualifies for the program download a NTCP questionnaire(.pdf),
fill it out, and mail to the address on the form. If you have questions, contact Toneka Lindsey.
