Norristown Municipal Council approved a traffic calming policy on April 5, 2022 allowing residents to petition for removable speed humps on residential streets at approximately $2,500 each. Petitions require signatures from at least 75 percent of property owners on blocks that are at least 1,000 feet long, have a posted speed limit of 25 mph or less, are in residentially zoned districts, and are municipally owned and maintained. After staff review and police chief assessment, affected property owners must vote to approve the final safety plan with a 75 percent majority. For public rights-of-way with no residential properties, the municipality can be petitioned directly through the Public Works department following the same review process.
