Neighbourhood Traffic Watch Program<br />
______________________________________________________________________________<br />
6.0 CONCLUSION<br />
The Neighbourhood Traffic Watch Program is considered a very effective tool to raise the<br />
awareness to traffic safety concerns in any given neighbourhood. The Neighbourhood Traffic<br />
Watch Program is also an excellent tool to identify both real and perceived traffic safety<br />
concerns as the public is directly responsible for performing the evaluation <strong>of</strong> the traffic flow.<br />
Although the procedure <strong>of</strong> acquiring vehicle ownership information is very time consuming, it is<br />
believed that the positive benefits in terms <strong>of</strong> awareness and attitude change that may result from<br />
the receipt <strong>of</strong> an addressed letter from the police is extremely valuable. As with all other types<br />
<strong>of</strong> enforcement or awareness campaigns, the effects may be short-term and will have to be<br />
repeated periodically to maintain reasonable speed compliance.
