    Traffic Calming (Residential)

    Burlingame’s Residential Traffic Calming Program (RTCP) represents the City’s commitment to the safety and livability of our neighborhoods. 

    The purpose of the RTCP is to have a process available for identifying and addressing problems related to speeding, excessive traffic volumes and safety on local, residential streets. 

    By using various traffic safety measures, commonly referred to as the “3-Es” (Education, Enforcement, and Engineering), the goal is to alter driver behavior and reduce vehicle speeds or volumes in order to enhance pedestrian safety.
