2021
Traffic Calming is an urban design strategy that aims to slow down or reduce car traffic to improve safety for pedestrians and cyclists. It is founded on the idea that streets are a key element of the public realm and should be designed to create a sense of place for people to work alongside cars, but not be dominated by them.
Funded by MutualOne Bank, Natick Cultural Council, the Solomon Foundation, and Barr Foundation.
