- The rapid urban development in recent years has been reflected not only by the change in structure and size of towns, but especially by the increase in population mobility, which is strongly reflected by the fact that urban centers are clogged with individual transport, therefore, experts are dealing with possibilities of alternative solutions. Traffic calming in cities is a process that reflects the pursuit for a new quality of life as well as applying modern transport solutions at European level. In practice, there are many different types of this process depending on the type of area, road and citizens’ requirements. Streets, plazas and other public places of towns and cities are the points where a large part of social life is taking place. These venues do not serve only transport but are the places where commuters, children, elderly people and disabled persons meet. Especially bicycle transport for its significant reach, readiness to ride, easy operation and relatively high cruising speed has the appropriate conditions for further successful development in centre of a city. Article outlines some of the principles of traffic calm and their impact on road safety.
