North Tahoe Neighborhood Traffic Management

This program provides guidance in selecting the most appropriate traffic calming measures for each specific situation and is designed to engage the community during the development of a traffic calming plan. Under the NTMP, Public Works engineers will work with a neighborhood’s residents and/or Homeowners Association to identify and implement engineering and education traffic calming measures.  For greater detail about this process, please visit the Placer County Traffic Calming page.
