I have received your request for traffic calming; traffic calming can be a bit of a process. Here is a link to information on initiating traffic calming on your street. https://www.burlingtonvt.gov/DPW/Traffic-Calming-Neighborhood-Enhancement-Program. Currently, traffic calming in Burlington is initiated by residents. At least 1/3 of the affected street or neighborhood needs to be interested in traffic calming, which is demonstrated through a neighborhood petition. The template is available on the website. Once a petition is received, it enters the project queue. The DPW manages an average of 4 traffic calming projects at any one time and new projects are advanced in the order they are received. The process generally takes a minimum of 2 years and up to 4 years to complete, while the City balances staff to manage projects and budgets to install traffic calming.
I would suggest that if you feel unsafe at any time please call the Burlington Police Department (BPD). We have traffic regulations in ordinance which may take care of your concerns and the BPD is good at enforcing them, they just need to know what is going on. I have a good contact with the BPD; his name is John King and he is the BPD Parking Enforcement Manager. Here is Mr. King’s contact information jking@bpdvt.org, (802)540-2185. Feel free to contact me should you have any questions.

DPW Technical Services is currently collaborating with an outside consultant on overhauling the Traffic Calming process in the City – the first overhaul in about 15 years. One major element of this change is to institute a data driven triage process to Traffic Calming. The revised program will make sure neighborhoods with data supported traffic issues will be prioritized for traffic calming measures. We hope this will make the process more efficient, better allocate City resources, and better serve the needs of residents. We anticipate this new process will be brought forward for community input and implementation this Fall. In the meantime, however, we are still encouraging residents to follow the current traffic calming process in order to be placed on the queue for analysis.
I am happy to set up a time for us to meet and discuss this further. Feel free to call me directly should you have any questions.

Quick update on this request:
We do not have traffic data to evaluate this request, but our engineering team will be starting this year's data collection the first week of July. The data collection schedule will be posted on the DPW Traffic Calming website: https://www.burlingtonvt.gov/dpw/TrafficCalming. Once we review the data for this street we will update this SCF request with more information and next steps.
You are receiving this message because you have previously (or perhaps just now) submitted a request on SeeClickFix. We're excited to let you know that we are now implementing a comprehensive asset management program which is a mostly "behind the scenes" effort. This will enable more efficient, more effective and more fiscally sound infrastructure management. Nothing changes for you and we'll continue to use SeeClickFix, but we have had to automate a process to connect our open SCF requests with our asset management program. There may be the occasional bug to work out, but rest assured that your issue is still in queue and assigned to the right City staffer. Once this initial round of automation is through in about a week, we'll revert back to our standard messages on SeeClickFix.
