<br />Enforcement <br /> <br />Increased Enforcement I Speed Watches <br /> <br />Purpose <br />The effective use of public safety/police <br />personnel to encourage reduced speeds in <br />residential areas. Enforcement usually involves <br />the use of radar to identify speeders and ticket <br />violators. <br /> <br /> <br />Speed Watches rely on neighborhood <br />participation to create awareness and, in turn, <br />help control speeds in neighborhoods. <br /> <br />Effects <br />Volumes Little or no effect <br />Speed Speed reduction as long as enforcement is maintained (the "halo" effect of <br /> infrequent enforcement is as little as 1 mile or 4 hours). <br />Traffic No/se and Air Little or no effect. <br />Traffic Safety May reduce overall crashes if speeds are actually reduced. <br />Advantages . Easy to implement <br /> . Effective with repetitive enforcement on a non-routine basis. <br /> . Speed Watch programs have been perceived positively by neighborhood, even <br /> in areas where significant speed reductions were not measured. These types of <br /> programs may make neighborhoods find that they do not actually have a <br /> speeding problem. <br />Disadvantages . Not self-enforcing; temporary measure, dependent on resources <br /> 'Expensive and not always desirable to use police for traffic enforcement due to <br /> budget and manpower constraints <br />Problems Targeted . Speeding <br /> . Moving vehicle violations <br /> . Running stop signs <br />Design . The locations of implementation should be clearly identified to minimize the <br /> time spent enforcing and maximize the resultant speed reduction. <br /> . Actual speed surveys should be used to narrow problem to specific time (day of <br /> the week, time of day) and location. <br /> <br />APRIL 2005 <br /> <br />22 <br />
