The NTMP provides four basic categories of tools to apply to any given project. These are as follows:

Tools to Address Speeding
Tools to Address Traffic Volume
Tools to Address Pedestrian Safety
Tools to Address Reducing Vehicle Collisions

The following tables list the measures available and show their relative effectiveness and restrictiveness for each category:
