Residents interested in a traffic calming project for their neighborhood street must apply online by Saturday, Feb. 28
VANCOUVER – Vancouver community members are invited to submit traffic concerns and champion project locations for consideration through the 2026 Neighborhood Traffic Calming Program. The program will award approximately $300,000 for traffic calming projects this year.
Residents interested in a traffic calming project for their neighborhood street must apply online by Saturday, Feb. 28.
After the application period, community-identified projects will be reviewed through a competitive selection process. Final projects will be selected this fall. Locations are evaluated and ranked based on information such as traffic speed and volume, sidewalks, mobility/bike lanes, bus stops, vicinity to schools and collision history.
This program supports the city’s Strategic Plan and core values for livability, community relationships, distinct neighborhoods and transportation/mobility. Past projects have included signing and surface striping, speed cushions/tables, radar feedback signs, pedestrian safety islands and street trees.
