Traffic Problems on Military Installations

A common problem found on military bases today is crowding. This isn’t due to a higher than normal number of folks in army service, but base closures that have forced more personnel onto fewer bases. A smaller number of bases have to support more housing and services than ever seen before. So more folk live and work, with their youngsters attending school, in a smaller area than most military staff had to deal with in times past.

The govt knows this crowding is certain to cause traffic problems now and in the future thanks to a study requested by Congress. The National Research Council’s Transportation Research Board concluded that traffic problems were unavoidable. Solving these problems can be hard for many bases, where funds and personnel are already stretched thin. Luckily, TraffiCalm Systems and other corporations make signs that can be of assistance with military base traffic calming easily and affordably.
