§ 17-124. The affected area and the traffic-calming plan.

(a)

Where a traffic study is warranted it will be conducted at a time to be determined by, and within the sole discretion of, the department.

(b)

Upon completion of a traffic study, the department shall make a determination as to whether the results clearly demonstrate that the installation of traffic-calming measures are warranted based upon the criteria established in the traffic-calming program guidelines.

(c)

When considering traffic-calming program guidelines relating to speeding, the determination regarding whether the established criteria for traffic-calming measures have been met will be based on a comparison of actual study speeds obtained to the posted speed limit. When considering the criteria in traffic-calming program guidelines that relate to cut-through, the determination will include a comparison of cut-through traffic volumes obtained in a study to allowable volumes of cut-through traffic established in those guidelines.
