Traffic calming as a means of improvement of the urban environment
Original language description
The main subject of this paper is to survey traffic calming methodology in European cities. Traffic calming has a significant impact on improvement of the environment in city centres, particularly reduction of air pollution through emissions and restriction of noise from motor vehicle traffic. Emphasis is placed on the applications of the individual methods implemented in Rome, London, Stockholm and Munich. Through the long-term monitoring of the traffic situation, the pros and cons of the individual methods can be evaluated in these cities. The paper aims to find a broader context for implementation of the individual methods and their adaptation to the traffic calming conditions in Czech Republic. Pursuant to the facts obtained, a study of the current measures in Ostrava has been executed, together with a draft of suitable methods to reduce car traffic and improve the environment in the broader city centre. © 2017 Taylor & Francis Group, London, UK.
