CE ÎNSEAMNĂ TRAFFIC CALMING ÎN ENGLEZĂ?
Trafic calmant
Traficul de calmare constă în design fizic și alte măsuri, inclusiv drumuri înguste și zgomote de viteză, puse în practică pe șosele pentru a încetini sau reduce traficul autovehiculelor, precum și pentru a îmbunătăți siguranța pietonilor și a bicicliștilor. Planificatorii urbani și inginerii de trafic au multe strategii pentru calmarea traficului. Astfel de măsuri sunt comune în Australia și Europa, dar mai puțin în America de Nord. Traficul de calmare este o traducere literală a cuvântului german Verkehrsberuhigung - prima folosire a termenului în limba engleză a fost în 1985 de Carmen Hass-Klau. În dezvoltarea sa timpurie în Marea Britanie în anii 1930, calmarea traficului sa bazat pe ideea de zone rezidențiale protejate de traficul prin trafic. Ulterior, a fost în principal justificată pe baza siguranței pietonilor și a reducerii zgomotului și a poluării atmosferice locale pe care traficul o produce. Cu toate acestea, traficul auto afectează grav funcțiile sociale și recreative pe care străzile sunt recunoscute acum.
