Traffic & Safety Concerns
The Village's Traffic and Safety Commission reviews transit, parking and potentially hazardous traffic matters. More information about the petition process is available on the Commission page.
The Village recently completed the Northeast Neighborhood Traffic Study to analyze traffic patterns in the section of town between Greenfield Avenue and North Avenue from Lathrop to Harlem. Read more about the study and proposed improvements here.
Similar to work that was completed in the northeast corner of the Village, River Forest has also recently completed a traffic study of the entire Village to discover and discuss any specific areas that may warrant additional discussion and potential modifications. Read more about the study and proposed improvements here.
Red Light Cameras
The Village currently has two Automated Traffic Systems located at North Avenue and Harlem Avenue and Lake St and Harlem Avenue.
