It plays an important role in improving road safety, and each 1 mph reduction in vehicle speed resulting from traffic calming has been found to reduce accidents by around 5%.</p><p> </p><p>Traffic calming has been the subject of extensive research. The Department publishes advice for local authorities on designing and installing traffic calming, in Local Transport Note 1/07: Traffic Calming, available at <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/traffic-calming-ltn-107" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/traffic-calming-ltn-107</a>.
