The purpose of this research was to evaluate the Virginia Department of Transportation's (VDOT's) Residential Traffic Calming Guide. A 2-year pilot program served as a means to evaluate the Guide. The results of the evaluation enabled VDOT to strengthen its Guide based, to a large extent, on the lessons learned in the pilot program and to prepare for effective statewide implementation of this customer service-oriented program. The recommended changes to the Guide that were identified during the effort and incorporated in the latest version of the Guide are described. An implementation plan outlines a suggested approach to transition from a pilot to a statewide program. The plan emphasizes the Guide as a component of a residential traffic management program.
