Neighborhood Slow Zone Program

The Neighborhood Slow Zone Program focuses on reducing speeds and improving safety on neighborhood residential and community streets. This Safe Streets for All grant funded program will use "quick build" treatments that can be installed relatively quickly and affordably, such as: speed humps, daylighting, and high-visibility crosswalks.

The City selected two priority Neighborhood Slow Zones with high-scoring streets in the Southeast and Southwest quadrants of Lancaster. These zones will move into the design phase later in 2026 and will be constructed in 2028.

To help us select locations for safety treatments, please use the Street Safety Concerns Map to report locations that feel unsafe. For example, where do people tend to speed or drive aggressively? Are there blind spots at intersections or crosswalks? We'll use this information to help prioritize improvement projects moving forward.
