Neighborhood Streets Program provides traffic calming
The Washington County Neighborhood Streets Program helps improve safety in unincorporated Washington County neighborhoods by addressing traffic-related issues such as speeding and cut-through traffic.

A Neighborhood Streets Program safety campaign can include yard signs, temporary speed trailer placement or a full safety campaign.

The program relies on the people who live and work in a project area who are interested in traffic calming and are willing to become actively involved in the process. Learn more about the Neighborhood Streets Program.
