Rosser Street Traffic Calming Project - March 2008

The City of Prescott has developed a design to calm traffic on Rosser Street through the Meadows subdivision: from Eagle Mountain Drive to east of Eagle View Drive.

The public is invited to attend an open house meeting for the project, sponsored by the City of Prescott, on Monday, March 31, 2008, from 5:00-6:30 pm in the Activity Room of the Prescott Adult Center, 1280 Rosser Street, Prescott, Arizona. City representatives will be on hand to discuss the project and answer questions from the public. The primary goal of this event is to present the proposed plan, listen to the public’s concerns, and solicit input. The meeting will be structured as an informal event, allowing the public to stop in anytime during the meeting duration.

For information about the project and/or the community meeting, please contact Ian Mattingly, City Traffic Engineer, at 928-777-1130.

Traffic Calming

Traffic Calming is a way to manage traffic so that its negative impacts on residents, pedestrians and schools are minimized. Traffic calming solutions can range from the installation of a curb extension to traffic islands to slow or restrict traffic movements.

If you would like your neighborhood considered for traffic calming, contact Traffic Engineering Services and describe your concern or traffic problem. Call 928-777-1130 and ask for Traffic Engineering.

Once your request is received and determined consistent with policies and procedures, a traffic investigation will be completed. (examples: posting of restrictions, painting of traffic markings on the pavement). Results of the investigation are presented to the Traffic Coordinating Committee (TCC), an advisory committee to the City Council on traffic matters.

Some situations require community involvement because they can result in loss of parking, stronger enforcement measures or redirecting traffic onto other roadways. City representatives can meet with neighborhood residents to analyze the appropriate solutions, allowing for community input throughout the process.
