Traffic calming is a set of measures used to “calm” traffic. The goal is to create safer streets for all users. This includes pedestrians, people who use mobility devices, cyclists, and motorists. Used effectively, traffic calming measures can reduce speeds, limit cut-through traffic, and discourage poor driving habits, such as distracted or aggressive driving.

Project Process

The Neighbourhood Traffic Calming Studies will follow the process set out in the Town of Fort Erie Neighbourhood Traffic Calming Policy adopted by Town Council on April 17, 2023. Consistent with this process, the project team will assess current conditions and prepare a proposed traffic calming plan for each location to address neighbourhood traffic concerns. Public input will inform the plans recommended to the Traffic Coordinating Committee and Council at project completion.

Visit our Traffic Calming page to learn more about the study process.

Get Involved

We are inviting public input on the three Neighbourhood Traffic Calming Studies. You can participate and share your initial feedback through this survey (under the study locations). The survey seeks your opinion on current traffic conditions and what traffic calming measures make sense for your neighbourhood.

The Town will invite feedback on the draft traffic calming plans through online public consultation at a future date. Sign up to receive notification of upcoming project events.
