I’m not an expert on traffic calming or a traffic engineer. I’m offering what I’ve found and look forward to others sharing their knowledge. The more we know, the better our decisions.</span><br><span>2. I’m pro-bike lanes.</span><br><span>3. I’m pro-traffic calming. Specifically, I’m pro calming measures that protect the livability of our neighborhood (including don’t eliminate parking spots), maintain the beauty of our historic district (don’t add to “urban visual pollution”), and protect our property (maintain property values.) For these reasons, I’m con-pylons.</span><br><span>5. I believe safety, effectiveness, and aesthetics should be considered.</span><br><span>6. The District should ensure adequate community input before, during, and after implementation, and should provide post-implementation assessment (did the measure achieve it’s intended purpose.)</span><br><span></span><br><span>My google research included many sources — US DOT, the Institute of Traffic Engineers, the Global Designing Cities Initiative, and Project for Public Spaces, in addition to many state transportation department reports. I read the US Dept of Transportation Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices MUTCD which all states follow and must enforce. I’ve downloaded many of these reports, in case anyone is interested.</span><br><span></span><br><span>Here are some of the key points that I found.</span><br><span></span><br><span>These pylons are called a lot of things, mostly vertical traffic delineators, but also candlesticks, tubular markers, and boomerang flexible delineators. We’ll call them pylons.</span><br><span></span><br><span>The MUTCD governs use of pylons in public traffic, and determines that they are “beneficial where alignment can be confusing” (lane reductions and curves), interchange ramps, median crossovers, parking lots, truck escape ramps, highways, and work zones. They are meant for traffic guidance and in temporary work zones or to alert drivers to upcoming hazards, not as warning devices or permanent traffic calming.</span><br><span></span><br><span>Pylons are not recommended for residential traffic calming by USDOT, the Institute of Traffic Engineers, the Global Designing Cities Initiative, or Project Public Spaces. I was able to find only one municipality that used pylons for this purpose. New Haven, CT, uses them to slow/deter traffic in a public housing, high crime area explicitly because they’re cheap to install. There may be other cities that use them, but I couldn’t find any.</span><br><span></span><br><span>The ITE acknowledges the importance of aesthetics and use of traffic calming to support historic preservation and neighborhood pride. </span><br><span></span><br><span>The reports I found that explored what cities have done showed that successful cities included community input, support and post implementation surveys. Community acceptance and support were considered important.</span><br><span></span><br><span>Specific to the intersection of 12th and Indep, this intersection already has a 3 way stop, so an effective traffic calming measure. I’d like to see incident data that would indicate the need for pylons before any decision was made to install them. The data and the neighborhood should support such a decision. </span><br><span></span><br><span>Many of the calming measures used in other jurisdictions may not be practical for our area. One option I think should be considered are rumble strips. They won’t eliminate parking spots, they’re not difficult to install (from what I understand), they’re not as expensive as other options, aren’t fugly — as one commenter offered, and can be effective. </span><br><span></span><br><span>Those are my findings and my thoughts.

A streetscape is the result of two things: the physical environment and the uses that take place within public space. To help shape the character of new areas and protect the quality of existing neighborhoods, the District has in place streetscape standards, guidelines, and policies to guide changes to public space. Physical features that are considered can include sidewalk paving material, fences and retaining walls, street trees and their spacing, and other infrastructure like street lights or curb and gutters. Uses that impact the character of public space include sidewalk cafes, vending, street festivals, and other impermanent activities.</span><br></blockquote></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><blockquote type="cite"><span></span><br></blockquote></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><blockquote type="cite"><span>In partnership with the District Department of Transportation, the Office of Planning works with District agencies and the private sector to ensure the design of public space is of high quality and meets minimum requirements.
