The City of Palm Coast has installed traffic-calming treatments as part of its Traffic Calming Pilot Study.

Following the findings of the 2024 Residential Speed Study, speed cushions have been installed on Cimmaron Drive and Florida Park Drive to address areas of concern for speeding and crash risks. Additionally, chicanes have been implemented on Farmsworth Drive and Forest Grove Drive to create slight curves that encourage drivers to slow down. Lane narrowing measures are also in place on Woodbury Drive and Sea Trail, designed to reduce vehicle speeds and improve safety naturally.

Now that the traffic-calming treatments are fully installed, the city wants to hear residents' feedback on how these changes affect traffic flow and neighborhood safety. Resident input will help the City Council determine whether these measures should remain in place after the pilot program concludes in April.

“This program is a top priority for the City Council because it’s all about making our neighborhoods safer and more enjoyable for everyone,” Mayor Mike Norris said. “Please take the time to answer the surveys so we can work together to find the best solutions.”
