The firm of ATCS, P.L.C., was contracted by the Town Council last year to conduct the study, which was to address key locations in town, including those that already have traffic-calming measures in place, focusing on residential streets. The study assesses cut-through traffic and speeding in residential areas. The report will be on a future Town Council agenda for consideration.

About Us
The Transportation Safety Commission
provides criteria, a program, and a procedure in considering, evaluating, and implementing requests for the installation of traffic calming measures on residential streets in the Town of Vienna. The Town has complete responsibility for traffic management activities for all streets within the Town limits.
The five program goals seek to address the following:
1. Enhance and preserve the quality of life and neighborhood livability.
2. Create a safe and attractive street system by enhancing the safety and efficiency of streets within the Town of Vienna.
3. Promote pedestrian, cycle, and transit use.
4. Incorporate the preferences and requirements of the people using the area (residing, working, or playing) along the street or at intersections.
5. Help reduce the negative effects of motor vehicles on the environment.
Objectives include the following:
1. Achieve slower speeds for motor vehicles.
2. Reduce collision frequency and severity.
3. Improve the safety and the perception of safety for non-motorized users of the streets.
4. Reduce cut-through motor vehicle traffic.
5. Reduce need for police enforcement.
Principles of the plan:
1. Traffic calming planning will be community based and supported, by the Town administration and staff.
2. Traffic calming measures must directly affect driver behavior and improve the safety of all users of the street (e.g., children, elderly, handicapped, pedestrians, and cyclists).
3. Traffic calming measures will be considered when ever petitioned by Town residents as specified in the full Citizen's Guide to Traffic Calming in Vienna - January 2002 (click this link), available here
in Adobe Acrobat.
4. Traffic calming measures will be considered on new streets and/or when existing streets are considered for major reconstruction or repair.
