The City of Minneapolis Public Works Requests Your Input on Draft Neighborhood Traffic Calming Process

Via a December e-announcement from the City of Minneapolis:

Minneapolis Public Works wants your input on a new process we are proposing to address traffic safety concerns and traffic calming requests on neighborhood streets. The process provides a way for community members to request traffic calming and for Public Works to review those requests fairly, transparently, and equitably. 

The proposed process for neighborhood traffic calming seeks to provide a process that:

• better considers the overall network;
• is data-driven and transparent; and
• is more equitable.

An overview of the new neighborhood traffic calming process is available here. 

You can find additional details about the proposal here, including the link for sharing comments. We are accepting comments on the draft through December 31.

After reviewing feedback, Public Works will finalize the process early in 2022. We will share final details on how you can request traffic calming in the spring.
