Hello, we've had an issue with people speeding (sometimes at highway speeds) on Bright Street. I'm writing to request some kind of traffic calming. Please let me know how to get this done. Thank you!

Thank you for writing. Bright Street was already on our list of streets for traffic calming consideration and we have confirmed that it does qualify for improvements. We are currently working on two other traffic calming projects and preparing to start a third on another street. With those underway, the schedule for traffic calming on Bright Street is pending the FY22 budget development process. We will keep this See Click Fix request updated as we know more about our upcoming budget for traffic calming work.
We recently updated our traffic calming program to prioritize streets with safety concerns. It is our intent to have a more defined schedule that we can share within the next few months.
Thank you for your interest in safety on your neighborhood street.

Thank you for the detailed response; that sounds great, though that is a while from now.
A traffic measurement study was conducted here several years ago. When was it determined that Bright Street is eligible, and how are traffic calming projects prioritized?
I want to underscore that this is a serious problem. While I appreciate that these things take, I am concerned about safety as lots of children live in the area.
With that said, is there a lesser action that DPW could take in the interim?
Thanks

Brief update for everyone:
Information on the traffic calming program and prioritization process can be found here: https://www.burlingtonvt.gov/dpw/TrafficCalming
Traffic data is available through the State's searchable database here: https://vtrans.public.ms2soft.com/tcds
With the recent changes to the Traffic Calming program we're still working on a good system to update our website with each street's traffic calming analysis. Thanks to City Council's commitment to this work, we can announce that funding is secured for the streets listed as "pending triage and funding." We're very close to having an updated work plan with next steps we can share. Thanks for everyone's patience while we prepare for this next phase of work.
