Hopkinton Village Traffic Calming
What is traffic calming?
  • Traffic calming is any physical change in a street that makes drivers slow down. Traffic calming makes streets safer for people who walk, bike, roll, and drive. This project will display ways we can make the street safer for all. Traffic calming also builds on the Economic Development principle that safer streets are more productive streets.
What is a demonstration project?
  • An easy-to-install, short-term traffic calming installment using materials such as traffic tape, chalk paint, traffic cones, and other materials that can easily be removed. The event helps to inform and educate road users and the Town for future planning. If this demonstration is successful, it could lead to lasting change in this location, as well as other demonstrations in other areas!
Where?
  • Hopkinton Village Intersection (Main St./South Rd./Old Henniker Rd) by the Veteran's Memorial Park and Hopkinton Village Store
When?
  • New traffic pattern begins:  Sunday, October 16, 2022 at 7:00 a.m.
