Apply for a Temporary Speed Table

Temporary Speed Table Program Requirements


In response to an overwhelming number of resident requests for speed tables, the village developed the Temporary Speed Table Program. 

Residents interested in installing temporary speed tables in their neighborhoods due to excessive speeding or poor traffic conditions, must submit a Temporary Speed Table Application and submit the completed application to the Public Services Department.   As a requirement of the program, the application requires approval from 67% of the area's neighbors. Once the Public Services Department verifies and approves the application, the area(s) goes on an installation list that is provided to the speed table contractor for installation.
