  Richmond Police Department is aware of speeding complaints on Monument Avenue. Along with the Safety Camera Program, the City is taking additional actions to manage speeds on city streets. This actions include a multi-departmental approach: • Retiming traffic signals to encourage following the speed limit and creating a wait at the next red light for people that elect to speed. • Engaging the public on developing safety culture through its Speed Management Symposiums. • Lowering all speed limits on city-maintained streets to a maximum of 35 mph, except for one regional freeway at 45 mph. • Launching public service announcements including one to encourage slowing down to a stop for people crossing the street. • Implementing changes to the built environment using Vision Zero principles and a complete streets approach including: o The reallocation of street space using roadway conversions to provide quick build bike infrastructure using the City’s resurfacing program making crossing streets easier for people walking, rolling, and biking. o The improvement of streets using roadway conversions to prioritize transit, making crossing streets easier for people walking and rolling. o The installation of pedestrian hybrid beacons for people crossing multi-lane streets. o The construction of accessible sidewalks with pedestrian countdown signals and high visibility crosswalks to transit stops. o The conversion of intersections into modern roundabouts.
