Traffic Calming Case Study – KC Area Municipality

Over the past week, Relevate One partnered with a local Police Department to deploy one of our mobile traffic calming units on a main thoroughfare near a school. The goal was simple: validate concerns about speeding with objective, defensible data.

Here’s what the platform captured in just over one week of continuous sampling:

One-Week Snapshot

  • Approximately 14,300 vehicles passed the unit
  • 3,100+ verified speeding violations recorded
  • Highest speed recorded: 69 MPH

Each speeding event was not just counted — it was correlated with video footage and license plate recognition, allowing individual vehicles to be confirmed and reviewed when needed. This type of data gives municipalities and HOAs something they often lack: clear, factual insight into what is actually happening on their streets.

Why this matters for HOAs:

  • Many communities suspect speeding issues but struggle to get attention or action without hard data
  • Short-term deployments (typically 1–2 weeks) provide statistically meaningful results
  • Video-backed data helps HOAs engage residents, identify repeat behavior, and support conversations with municipal partners
  • In some cases, communities even use anonymized footage or stills to help socially reinforce safer driving behaviors

Our Traffic Calming Platform is designed to act as both a behavioral deterrent and a data-gathering tool, giving HOAs the information they need to make informed decisions — whether that’s resident outreach, traffic engineering discussions, or working more closely with local police departments.

If speeding has been a concern, I’d love to share more about this platform, along with our other mobile security solutions and how we’re helping HOAs improve safety in practical, cost-effective ways.
