10 What is Traffic Calming? Physical measures that reduce the negative effects of motor vehicle use and alter driver behaviour. Improve conditions for non-motorized street users. Traffic Calming measures can involve changes in traffic signage and/or physical changes to the road: Vertical Deflection Horizontal Deflection Vertical traffic calming measures will typically not be considered on Emergency routes, Transit Routes or Major Collector Roadways. The City of Kitchener endorses traffic calming as a means to reduce speeding, through traffic and collisions in residential neighbourhoods.
11 What is Traffic Calming? Required Support Traffic Calming Initiation City requires 25% support from affected residents to initiate traffic a calming study. Response Rate of Affected Homes 29% Total Yes 26% Total No 3% Implementing the Preferred Plan Once the Traffic Calming study is complete, a minimum of 50% of the affected residents must respond, with 60% support of the recommended plan for it to proceed.

27 QUESTIONS & DISCUSSION
28 All-way Stop Control Warrants All-Way Stop Controls are meant to safely alternate the right-ofway to opposing traffic flows; In order for an All-Way Stop Control to be warranted, a significant amount of traffic must exist on both streets; If there is little traffic on the side street, drivers who regularly use the major street will start anticipating that they will not have to yield to anyone and may disobey the stop signs; Unwarranted All-way Stop Controls are often disobeyed by drivers; Pedestrian safety can be compromised; Unnecessary increase in traffic noise as vehicles slow down, stop and then accelerate again; Stop signs increase air pollution and waste fuel; Adding new stop signs usually increases overall vehicle speeds, as drivers attempt to make up for lost time spent at a stop sign;
