What We Heard: Traffic Calming Policy Review

CLOSED: This discussion has concluded.

The City of St. John’s has released the summary of ‘What We Heard’ during public engagement for Traffic Calming Policy review and update.

The purpose of the two-week public engagement process was to educate residents about the traffic calming policy review, and to collect feedback to help shape a revised policy focusing on the processes for determining and implementing projects including scoring and criteria.

Feedback collected during engagement has been shared with lead staff in Transportation Engineering and will be presented to City Council during Committee of the Whole on Wednesday, March 9, 2022.

Public Engagement for this project included approximately 1,100 visits to EngageStJohns.ca; 938 unique visits to the engage page; 314 engaged visitors (people who posted questions/ comments or answered surveys), 32 submissions posted on the engage page and 13 email submissions.

Traffic calming remains an important topic to St. John’s residents, with numerous questions, comments, and emails in this engagement. The complete ‘What We Heard’ document and updates on this project can be found in the Documents section of this project page, or here. Next steps will include bringing a revised policy to Council at a future Committee of the Whole for approval.
