If needed, develop and implement a program for closing streets temporarily or permanently. Ensure that the negative impacts of street closures, such as loss of street or neighborhood connectivity are appropriately balanced by the benefits of creating large, desirable and well-used social spaces.
Implement flexible travel lanes that can be used differently during certain times of the day or week, such as using a parking lane as a farmers’ market location one day a week.
Limit and control the types of vehicles on the street, e.g., manage truck traffic and control deliveries and service vehicles through restrictions on location and time of use.
Lower the speed limit for traffic to no more than 25 mph. Encourage speed limits of 20 mph or less to minimize impacts of traffic on the social character of the street.
