Project Overview

The City of Peterborough launched the “Calm Streets PTBO” initiative in 2020. Through this initiative, a new Traffic Calming Policy and Toolkit were developed to guide how City staff consider requests for traffic calming measures made by residents on Local Streets, Low Capacity Collectors, and High Capacity Collectors in residential neighbourhoods within Peterborough. The Traffic Calming project also resulted in a Toolkit (or menu) of solutions that the City will consider for use in Traffic Calming projects.

Phase 2 - Project Update

The recommendations for traffic calming on the following streets were approved by the Council.

  • High Street between Lansdowne Street and Sherbrooke Street
  • Highland Road between Chemong Road and Fairbairn Street
  • Whitefield Drive, Golfview Road, and Silverdale Road

Trial / temporary traffic calming measures will be implemented on High Street and Highland Road study areas, and Permanent installations on Whitefield Drive, Golfview Road, and Silverdale Road study area will be implemented in 2023.
