Highlands Parkway has been identified by a traffic study as having vehicles operating at speeds higher than desirable. The City of Columbia Public Works department is beginning a traffic calming project for the corridor and is seeking public input on potential solutions.
An informal open house meeting will be held from 6-7 p.m. Thursday, June 18, in the gymnasium of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 4708 Highlands Parkway, Columbia. Residents and community members are invited to review potential traffic calming concepts, ask questions and share feedback with City engineering staff.
Project information and diagrams will be available for public review at the meeting and on this page. Public comments may be submitted through July 2 and will be considered as designs are developed.
In the Documents section on the right side of this page, you can find the following files:
Highlands Parkway traffic calming project location – A map showing the project area on Highlands Parkway.
Highlands Parkway speed study data – A map showing traffic volumes (the number of vehicles) traveling in each direction, along with the 85th percentile speed measured during the traffic study. The 85th percentile speed is a commonly used traffic engineering measurement that represents the speed at or below which 85% of vehicles were traveling. For example, an 85th percentile speed of 37 mph means that 85% of drivers were traveling 37 mph or slower, while 15% were traveling faster than 37 mph.
Members of the public may attend any open meeting. For requests for accommodations related to disability, please call 573.874.CITY (2489) or email City@CoMo.gov. In order to assist staff in making the appropriate arrangements for your accommodation, please make your request as far in advance of the posted meeting date as possible.
