Traffic Calming in Tigard
The City of Tigard Traffic Calming Program analyzes streets as part of a
network to determine what traffic calming measures may be appropriate
to reduce motor vehicle speeds without adversely impacting other
streets in the network.
Although speed humps have been the most
commonly used Traffic Calming Device, traffic circles,
islands and/or curb extensions may also be used to provide traffic calming on
streets too steep (greater than 8%) or with sharp curves.
