Neighborhood Traffic Management

The Sacramento County Neighborhood Traffic Management Program (NTMP) provides a variety of traffic management tools to address traffic concerns on neighborhood streets. The goal of the NTMP is to improve safety and the quality-of-life for residents by reducing the impacts from speeding vehicles and careless drivers on residential streets.

The NTMP includes the following key elements:

• A systematic approach to initiating citizen requests to treat neighborhood traffic issues.
• A priority system that allows staff to prioritize limited resources.
• Neighborhood involvement in developing and approving a neighborhood traffic management plan.
• A broader “Toolbox” providing more options to treat traffic related issues.

How is The NTMP Program Funded?

NTMP projects are funded through Measure A. Measure A, is a half-cent sales tax for transportation improvements that was approved by voters in 2004. This 30-year Measure provides funds for city and county road maintenance, traffic control & safety programs, streetscapes, pedestrian and bicycle facilities. Sacramento County contributes a portion of its Measure A share to the NTMP program. For additional information on Measure A, see the Sacramento Transportation Authority (STA) Measure A.
